You're making an investment in your healing/recovery and I take that seriously. My commitment to you is to be honest and sincere if I don't have the knowledge or experience to help your specific needs. I won't pretend I know. If I don't know something, I'll tell you. We'll decide together if I can obtain trainings to help or if it's better to connect you with another therapist that fits your needs. It's your life, your money, your past, present, and your future. I'm always finding new trainings and trying to stay up to date on new research and interventions to ensure you're obtaining the most relevant support as possible. I also ask for help and hire lead consultants in the mental health field to obtain feedback and check my thinking to be able to provide you with as much as possible unbiased quality therapy without breaking your confidentiality. The approach I take is holistic, compassionate and focus on gaining your trust. I don't jump into conclusions about you, I won't judge or critique you no matter what you've done, what's happened to you, or where you stand in life. I won't tell you what to do or what decisions to make, what's right or wrong. However, I'll ask you significant questions that spark your reflection. I'll partner with you in understanding and healing your mental health by identifying the obstacles that may be getting in your way to reach a freed mind. I'm interested in deep healing that's long lasting and not superficial approaches. My goal is that you won't need me forever but to be able to give you the skills and insight to empower and strengthen your values and inner self.
