Clients that are open to making a connection with me so that we can work together in finding what helps them feel better/grow.
-
Being able to witness the growth process of clients.
-
There's not a "one size fits all" approach for people to make changes.
-
It can help by getting perspectives different from ourselves to look at our situation differently. Or sometimes having a person outside of our lives offer validation can be very empowering and lower difficult emotions like shame.
-
"Success" to me is about progress, no matter how small the growth or changes are.
-
I am passionate about helping people find ways to increase their resilience. Therapy isn't all about focusing on what's wrong, but on ways to increase strengths.
