Choosing a therapist can be an intimidating, vulnerable and overwhelming process. Our culture often sends a message that asking for help from a therapist is a sign of weakness or lack of character. I completely disagree. In fact, I see those who seek therapy as courageous, dynamic individuals who desire different outcomes in their lives. I believe the therapeutic process provides clients an opportunity to experience a safe, respectful, creative and goal-oriented environment as they seek healing and change.
