When you want to make sense of your life story. When you want to remove blockages that are not allowing you to live an authentic life. When you are tired of feeling misunderstood. When you know life can be better. When you want to commit to yourself for the first time or maybe when you want to commit to yourself again. When your needs start to come first. When you want to find your own voice.

Therapy is a dialogue, an encounter, a supportive space in which your story an situation will take precedent in the discussion. I will serve as a catalyst while you commit to your own healing process. The dialogue will help you reconnect with your inner world, understand what is happening in your life as well as identifying obstacles and feelings difficult to manage. This therapeutic process will help you make decisions, modify thoughts, find answer to challenging questions, heal painful experiences and develop self confidence.

During a therapy session, you will explain how you see the problem and your life circumstances which will provide me with an understanding of what is happening in your life. As the therapy continues, I will ask questions to understand you and your life circumstances. I will highlight aspects that might be a roadblock for you as well as reflecting with you about the different ways to address them by identifying relational aspects, thoughts, and feelings and how they have serve you or not in your healing process. I will expect you to come prepared to each session and engage in active reflection about your emotional experience as I understand psychotherapy as a a collaborative effort between therapist and client.

Generally, someone comes to therapy because they would like something in their lives to change or because the common coping mechanisms they have used to handle their problems have not worked. They have acknowledged they need some support and look for someone who can listen and help them understand themselves. However, I think that everyone can benefit from therapy at some point in their lives.

Therapy offers opportunities to confront traumatic experiences and explore emotions in order to avoid your past trauma continues to be an obstacle in life and relationships. If you have suffered trauma, you may feel isolated since people might not understand the impact this experience has in your life. Therapy helps reduce this feeling of isolation through the relationship with a therapist. One of the main tasks in therapy is to help you re-establish a sense of trust on themselves and others. This will help you relate to the world with more confidence since, in many instances, the world has become and unsafe place for those who have suffered trauma.
