INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
When you’re struggling with anxiety and depression, it can take a toll on every aspect of your life. Having an individual therapist by your side can be empowering and powerful. Working with me, you get to be in charge as you explore your own needs and desires. Your autonomy is extremely important to us, so let’s make the uncomfortable comfortable as you grow.
Common Areas Explored in Individual Therapy
Anxiety & Depression
Address and manage anxiety and depression to improve your overall well-being.
Dissatisfaction with Life
Explore and navigate the areas of your life causing dissatisfaction to create change.
Life Transitions
Changes in your life can wreak havoc on your mental health. Learn to grow from them.
Trauma
Get guidance through the process of healing from past trauma or pain with tools to release and move forward with your life.
Relationshp Issues
Sometimes overcoming relationship issues start with learning the role you play in it. Explore how your past may affect your relationships.
Self Identity
Dig deep to understand why you struggle with your identity and self sabotage to uncover your true self with a clear sense of purpose.
Having an individual therapist by your side can be very powerful and empowering - especially if you’ve had negative experiences with therapy. But the therapy experience is as unique as you are. When you work with me, you get a space where you’re in charge but there’s balance. You won’t feel pushed into doing anything you don’t want to do but therapy is a place to make the uncomfortable comfortable and vice versa so you can find relief as you navigate your self-discovery journey.

What if I just need to vent - is that therapy?Venting is normal human behavior but it’s not part of therapy. While client autonomy is extrememly important, therapy isn’t just a place to vent where you want someone to provide feedback or suggestions and guidance. While everyone’s needs are different, therapy is great for tackling hard areas of your life that are hindering you from moving forward and growing as a person.

My last therapist was awful, why should I try it again?Sometimes it takes a while to find the right therapist - it can be a lot of trial and error. That’s why we aim to match you with a therapist that will be good fit for you and your needs. Therapy is different for everyone. We try to strike a balance with my clients where we may push those who are complacent and allow space for people who are too hard on themselves. Your mental health provider should be flexible in their approach and we try to do exactly that with each client.
