Benefits

Improved Coping

You will learn coping skills to help you manage feelings and behaviors that are causing emotional pain or interfering with functioning, such as:

  • Calming and grounding practices

  • Self-compassion

  • Perspective-taking

  • Effective ways of communicating your feelings and needs

Improved Self-understanding

You will come to see yourself more clearly and begin to differentiate between your true self and the person that family and society said you should be. Over time, this can bring greater ease in life and better functioning.

Relief from Trauma

If you’re coming for help with trauma, I can provide EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy, which eliminates or reduces symptoms and neutralizes triggers related to traumatic memories.

Transformative Change

If therapy goes well and you stick with it, you can expect to work through negative feelings and beliefs that underlie much of your suffering and struggles -- and, in working through them, find self-acceptance, growth, and enhance meaning in life.
