Brene Brown says, “Vulnerability is the birthplace of innovation, creativity, & change.” The courage to engage in therapy is an adventure of self-exploration/self-understanding. It is seemingly risky to step out of your comfort zone, but the rewards of compassion and healing spur new ideas, new ways of being, and a greater sense of who you are. This process shapes a more authentic self that gives meaning to life experiences and future goals. Abraham Maslow says, “In any given moment, we have 2 options: step forward into growth, or step back into safety.” I can walk with you, offering comfort and encouragement while inspiring hope!

Victor Frankl says, “Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” I can offer a safe space and help facilitate a discussion of meaning, where that space in between can be an empowering moment of realization of who you were, who you are, and who you want to be.
