- about therapy -
people have fascinated me for as long as i can remember. i wonder - why do we do the things we do? how can we live life to the full? what keeps us from movement? this curiosity informs my approach to psychotherapy.
i believe each of us have a desire to be understood and loved. we long to become the person we know we can be. pain, grief and trauma move people to feel "stuck" and feeling stuck feels hopeless.
if you long to get "unstuck" and become the person you have always wanted to be, then come be curious with me.
let's figure out how to be fully present in the moment and experience life to the full!
