Have you diligently worked to create a life that thrives, but still feel stuck by childhood or continuing harm? Is your past contributing to anxiety or depression in your current life? Often the coping strategies we form in childhood survive past their "effectiveness date," creating an invisible force that holds us back from thriving. In session, we will create a space for you to explore past, present, and hopes for the future. We will hold both harm and healing, as we create a framework for developing skills and a making adjustments that bring a freedom to thrive. Together we will forge a path that accounts for the beauty and harm.
Rather than understanding by walking a mile in one's shoes, I believe is more accurate to say you must walk a few miles WITH them. This understanding enables appreciation of your strengths, and where a course correction may free you to thrive. My modality influences include: Relational, Narrative, Psychodynamic, ACT, DBT, CBT, Multicultural, Person-Centered.
Your complexity allies with your past and present in creation of a thriving future. You are not alone and there is hope. I look forward to hearing your story.
