Your thoughts do not define you.
You might have noticed that you're not on the same trajectory as others around you. You're different, and you've always wanted something different. Sometimes, you feel disconnected and weird for not wanting what everyone tells you you should want. Maybe you don't want kids, or to own home, or to major in something that no one else understands. Maybe you're in multiple relationships, or you're just realizing that you're queer. Maybe you just feel like your brain works differently than everyone you know.
My clients are typically worried about what other people think of them and their body, work, family, trauma, health (fill in the blank). These stories you're telling yourself might not be reflecting who you really are, and they might have you stuck feeling disconnected and separated from the people around you who seem like they have it all together. Our work together helps you embrace your natural strengths, acknowledge the outdated stories, and take actions that support your desires (or figuring out your desires!) for your life.
Our work together is a place to explore, experiment, and get curious. Getting to the root of your patterns helps us work with the deeper issues driving your feelings and thoughts, both difficult and joyful. I offer a therapy experience that prioritizes the solutions that make the biggest impact first, and then supports you in gaining insight to create deeper, more meaningful change.
If this resonates for you, schedule a 15 minute intro call today! We'll talk about what you want from therapy, you can ask any questions you want, and I'll share more about my approach. If we both decide we're a good fit, we'll schedule our first appointment.
See you soon!
