I think people are very hard on themselves and get frustrated when they can't solve their problems on their own. We have this mentality as a society that if we can't solve our problems on our own, we are weak, a failure, etc. That just isn't true!

My approach to therapy is this: I want what you want. I'm not going to tell you what you should or shouldn't do because it's your life. There are exceptions to this, of course, but by and large, I want you to live the most fulfilling life you can. What I offer is my perspective on the things going on in your life, but I never want to tell someone what they should and shouldn't do.

Therapy is hard. It's uncomfortable to have to to take a hard look at the way we are interacting with the world. You may discover some things about yourself that you don't really like. That's completely normal! I will be right there by your side and we will get you to the other side of that.
