“I am feeling so much more hopeful since our appointment than I have felt in a long time.

I am so grateful for you. You are very gifted at knowing what is needed and how to go about it. I know there are things you say or seeds you plant and it takes me a bit to catch on or be open to (like with my family), but you’ve always been on point. You are impacting my life is such a positive way. Thank you so much.” Therapy & Coaching for relationships, marriage, life transitions – JM, 38-year-old

It can be a challenge to get started with therapy for many reasons including time, intimidation, money, embarrassment, it seems like a selfish investment, or you may try to convince yourself that doing something different just on your own will relieve the need for therapy. I have plenty of clients who would convince you it’s worth it!

Don’t let past events or your emotions run your life. You’re so much more than this! Process and learn from your past to create the life you want to live.

Hence, my slogan “A Smooth Sea Never Made a Skillful Sailor” – Use your past for good and your emotions for gain!

If you didn’t know, emotion regulation is a skill which is good news because you can learn it and put it into practice right away!

It’s so empowering to stay emotionally grounded in charged situations. Learn how to create a new way of being and don’t repeat the past. Gain new and meaningful understanding to create a new path forward.

Clients who get the most out of their therapy:

*Attend regularly to keep the momentum

*Do the activities assigned in between sessions

*Ask a lot of questions

*Bring a notebook (or ask for paper) to capture the highlights. Very helpful to look back on!

*Bring in real-life examples/anecdotes of challenging dialogue or circumstances they encounter. We discuss ways it could’ve been handled constructively. You then begin implementing these new methods and enjoy the difference!

You have more control than you think.
