getting started

what to expect

 

I believe we are all shaped by our lived experiences. We adapt to our environment, using our creativity to survive. Along the way, we might adopt ways of being that leave us feeling disconnected from our daily lives and relationships.

Therapeutic modalities like embodied relational Gestalt therapy can help increase awareness of our inner experiences and relationships. By tuning in moment-to-moment to your thoughts, feelings, sensations, and perceptions, sessions may include a mix of experiential interventions like role-play, drawing, sound, movement, and using bodily sensations to ground you in the present moment and foster growth.

Therapy often brings insights that push you beyond your comfort zone. As you navigate these new experiences, I’ll provide supportive challenge in the form of reflections, observations, and insights, helping you identify patterns that might be interfering with your life and relationships.

Building tolerance for discomfort is key to growth, and how you evolve through this work depends on many factors, with no guaranteed outcomes.

Allow yourself to be surprised by your own unfolding.
