How do you choose the therapist that's right for you? First off, trust your instincts. It is vitally important for you to trust and feel comfortable with your therapist. Having someone non-biased and non-judgemental to help you find new ways of thinking, feeling and doing can be just what it takes to really make change. The therapeutic relationship is like any other relationship in life, there are people you click with and people you don't. Trust yourself and find someone you can trust and you'll be well on your way to finding the help you need!
I am a marriage and family therapist. This means I look at relationships. I work with you on how you act and more importantly react to the people around you. Often times we feel angry, hurt, frustrated or anxious and don't really know the true "why" to those feelings.
My teaching background allows me to have better connections and insights to the individual needs of my clients. The challenge is working with different personalities and learning styles, as it is in therapy. Because I have been trained and have experience with individualizing I can tailor therapy to you specifically.
