The stories that we tell about ourselves and our experiences are our realities, and these realities shape how we perceive our past, current, and future experiences in our lives. Sometimes, these stories do not allow us to feel the level of happiness and fulfillment in which we desire due to problems dominating our stories. It is my goal to support individuals, families, couples, and groups in developing a sense of hope and possibility that were not previously there. This hope provides space for unique possible outcomes where these individuals can develop a story that includes happiness and life fulfillment. I work from a narrative perspective with a goal of developing realities that are less problem-saturated and where the individuals, couples, families, or group participants feel more capable and resilient in managing problems as they arise. In addition, I integrate evidence-based interventions that facilitate positive and sustainable change. The therapeutic relationship is such an important aspect of the therapeutic process. I know that it can be scary and difficult to seek help, so when individuals, couples, and families do this, I want them to feel that they are being supported and commended for their bravery. I want clients to feel comfortable, and my sole goal is to help them achieve theirs.
