Message to clients
“Entering therapy and expressing a desire to work on expanding your best self is a step of courage and true strength. At the time, it may not feel that way. However, this is how I humbly view the clients I have been fortunate enough to work with and share in their process of healing and wholeness. It's a great honor that I do not take lightly when meeting a new client and forming a therapeutic relationship with them. This foundational work is what sets the tone to be able to dig deep and share your most authentic self in a space without judgement.
My belief about therapy is that you are the expert on you. However, perhaps you are trying to further develop this aspect of self or have found yourself a bit lost in discovering your best self along the way. My hope is to reflect back to you things that may have become hidden, to look at patterns of behavior and see if these behaviors hinder or help you, and to help you evaluate attitudes or beliefs that may be interfering with where you want to be.”
