Therapy is a collaboration and you will be in an active role throughout the course of treatment. Therapy allows a space for you to express your feelings, explore your thoughts, and beliefs on the issues presented. You will be asked questions about your past experiences, family dynamics, relationships, current responsibilities, activities, your symptoms, and how you have been coping. While it is important to be as open as possible to attain resolution and healing during therapy, space is given to express discomfort in answering any questions, should you feel that way. I will help you analyze your thoughts and emotions, geared towards helping you cultivate self-awareness.
