What is Psychotherapy?

What a monumental moment. You have decided that you need help. It’s a difficult and frankly bold decision. To stand up and say that whatever you have been coping with, grief, anxiety, depression, hopelessness, dissatisfaction, is too much to handle on your own so you have decided to reach out to someone who can help. I have been there and most of the people in my life have at one point or another realized that life can be too much to handle and you need someone who isn’t in your direct social circle to provide support.

Psychotherapy is designed to provide this support. Together we will work through the issues, concerns, and/or events that are causing you distress in one shape or form by understanding these issues and yourself more completely. therapy in this practice is talk based and through this process I have seen clients transform their lives. Benefits are unique to each individual’s situation but active participation in therapy can lead to improved mood, decreased anxiety, healthy relationship development, comfort in social settings, and improved self-confidence. The psychotherapist’s role is to support this transformative process and assist their clients to deeper understanding of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I look forward to working with you toward your goals and the life you are hoping for.
