Individual Therapy

You don’t know what to do with how you feel.

Distracting yourself does not work.

You tell yourself that things will get better on their own, but you have been waiting and waiting with no change in sight.

It feels like you would burden others if you always told them how you felt, and when you tell someone, they don’t understand.

At this point, it’s hard to know what to do next.

You are tired of suffering.

The same struggles happen over and over.

Telling yourself that it is normal to feel a certain way does not mean you should suffer and not do anything about it.

Suffering in silence gets you nowhere.

After being tired of talking and thinking about your suffering, you want to do something about it.

Do something different to help yourself.

No one likes to feel uncomfortable, so sometimes we must face uncomfortable things. Learning how to meet that discomfort is where therapy can help.

In our session, you will receive a gentle push to have you face uncomfortable feelings and beliefs causing your symptoms. Becoming aware of these troubling feelings and thoughts helps you address them so they will no longer have a strong hold over you.

Therapy is a process, and while we go through this process, I want to help you decrease as much of your suffering as possible and quickly. To do this, you will receive ways to help you make yourself feel better by addressing your problematic thinking, soothing yourself, relaxing, or improving your mood.

The more work you do, the more results you will see. I offer homework to very motivated clients (I love when clients are motivated!).

Feel supported, invested in, and safe.

Everyone needs support, especially when talking about something difficult.

While working with me, you will find support, be listened to, and receive validation.

You can tell when someone is trying their best to help you, and I show this by continuously checking that you benefit from what we discuss in our sessions.

Relationships take time to form trust and feel safe, but this will become easier for you with my nonjudgmental listening.
