Progress is not just about the breakthroughs they experience - though I do celebrate each one with them - it is also about the quiet moments of connection, the trust built, the shared understanding, and the courage it takes to see the path unfold.

Here’s are a few reflections from my clients about their experience of our sessions together. This kind of feedback means the world to me. To see my clients grow into a deeper sense of trust in themselves, to witness their own capacity for self-discovery, is, to me, the most rewarding part of this work.

In my work, I often hear the term “rock bottom” used to describe those painful and disorienting moments in life when we feel as though we’ve lost everything—when we reach a place of profound despair, isolation, and disconnection from any sense of direction or purpose. It describes a point where a person feels there is no way forward, no path to recovery, and no hope for change. And yet, in my experience, this metaphor of “rock bottom” does not fully express the richness of human potential within such a moment.

As a therapist, I often witness clients holding back their emotions—particularly those that feel difficult, like sadness, shame, disappointment, or anger. There’s a resistance, a fear that once they allow themselves to feel, they might be swept away in a torrent of suffering, unable to return to solid ground. It’s a fear that the emotion will engulf them, that once they start crying, they may never stop…

The nature of the therapeutic relationship is itself transformative. As human beings, we are inherently social, and much of our psychological tension stems from ruptured or unavailable relationships—whether from unmet needs, unresolved conflicts, or difficulties in communication. Therapy provides a unique relational experience where we can explore our patterns of interaction in a safe, non-judgmental environment….

I offer you guidance, tools, materials, and insight, all rooted in deep empathy and understanding. My role is not to direct the outcome but to observe with presence and care, allowing you the freedom to explore, unencumbered by fear of judgment or attachment to results. I believe that, in the safe space of non-judgment, you can begin to access a deeper part of yourself—one that may be hidden or clouded by past experiences or fears…
