I believe in being empathetic and deliberate when it comes to the therapeutic experience. I hope that my clients will feel a great deal of comfort with me because it’s my job to provide the space that allows them to let their guards down gradually. I want you to remember that you have autonomy in this space and the process is completely for you. I tend to say, “You are the driver of this car. I’m just here to help you not crash.” Hopefully, you feel safe enough to trust me with the journey. My approach is to spend time building rapport while exploring the needs of the client. Therapy is extremely personal, and I work with clients to process their emotions and explore which direction they would want their path to turn next, no matter how long that takes. I like to use my strong listening and feedback skills and bring affirmations and humor to my sessions.
