Therapy is not your jam? I hear that…

 

In case you decide to give it a go (again, or for the first time), here is what I can tell you…

• I want good things for you

• I will communicate with you straightforwardly.

We may live in uncertainty, but your life and well-being are too valuable for guesswork with your healthcare providers.

• You have my unconditional positive regard.

We have all been hurt in life, but I am here to help.

• Vulnerability is often uncomfortable. …but essential to wellbeing.

This is a safe context for you to deal with your discomfort in life.

• Therapy isn’t all about pain and tears.

Chances are…we will do some laughing too. Yes, I said we.

• Your life has purpose and value.

Whether you feel that, or believe that, or not… It’s true.
