You know the feeling of going up the stairs in the dark and thinking there's one more step...and boom, down comes your foot, hard and jarring. You're already there. I sometimes think of therapy like that: shining just a little light on the moment can help us know exactly where we are, and how to go forward more gracefully, without hurting ourselves, without suffering. Funny thing about being in a safe place and feeling fully understood––it has a way of changing how we move in the world. I take a person-centered approach, confident that we’re all experts in our own lives and benefit from being fully authentic. I promise to meet you where you are, with empathy and acceptance. Together, we can light the way.
