My therapy style is very casual and conversational. I’ve been told “you’re not like what I expected from a therapist” because of my laid back style. We can even use swear words in therapy because it’s very therapeutic (I do it all the time when I see my therapist!) Nothing stuffy or judgemental when we have our sessions. Just you and me and our coffee...or tea, diet coke - whatever you like! I always have a variety of drinks ready to go for my clients.
Yes - some of this work we do together will be really hard. But not harder than all you’ve already accomplished in your life. All it takes is showing up for sessions and willingness to learn new techniques to see yourself as the amazingly gifted person that you are. And, did I mention that it will be FUN?
What to expect from our therapy sessions together:
For centuries laughter and humor have been studied and proven over and over to be an effective strategy for helping to heal all kinds of physical and emotional ailments.
Seriously? Is that it -waive a magic wand, laugh and poof - you’re cured? No. But, laughter is one of the many tools we’ll use. My goal is to fill your fanny pack with lots of methods and strategies to use outside of our sessions. Clients say they enjoy working with me because my sessions are laid back and fun. Of course, there WILL be tears sometimes; we’ll talk about some really difficult things, but we’ll do it together so you don’t feel you’re carrying so many burdens alone.
