Introduction

I understand the uncomfortable emotions you feel in interpersonal communication. I can support and help you improve your understanding of your emotions and improve your interpersonal relationships by listening to your feelings carefully, provide empathy and support, helping you identify blind spots and behavioral patterns in interpersonal communication, guiding you to explore past experiences, understand their impact on interpersonal relationships, and encouraging you to develop positive cognitive and behavioral patterns to promote the improvement of interpersonal relationships. I will not only be your biggest advocate, I will also teach you self-advocacy to promote healthy boundary setting to feel more self-respect and respected by others. Together, we'll build your voice so you can set healthy boundaries and thrive. In my work as a therapist, I'm passionate about helping couples create stronger, more fulfilling partnerships. I specialize in guiding couples to improve communication, fostering empathy, and effectively expressing needs and feelings. When conflict arises, I help you listen not just to words, but to the underlying emotions driving them. We'll work together to develop clear, direct communication that fosters understanding. Sometimes, past experiences and coping mechanisms can influence communication styles. If I identify these patterns, I may suggest individual therapy as additional support. Our work will also focus on understanding your and your partner's expectations and contributions to the relationship. This empowers you to make informed decisions that nurture a thriving partnership. Through therapy, I believe couples can navigate life's challenges and build lasting, fulfilling connections. I believe that you can do both while struggling with a major life decision and are unsure whether to follow your heart or the advice of your loved ones. On the one hand, I can help you develop a clear understanding of your core values in therapy. Core values are the foundation of our lives, and they influence our choices. Through therapy, you can explore your inner self, understand your true needs and goals, and make choices that are in line with your core values. On the other hand, I will guide you to use your strong cognitive abilities to plan your life. Cognition is our ability to understand and process information about the world. By using your cognition, you can analyze the pros and cons of different choices and make a plan that is right for you. I believe that there is infinite wisdom at the intersection of our rational and emotional brains. The rational brain represents our analytical and judgment abilities, while the emotional brain represents our emotions and intuition. In major life decisions, we need to use both reason and emotion. Only by combining reason and emotion can we make the wisest choices. As your therapist, I come in not as a solution manual, but as a fellow traveler on the winding path of self-discovery. Together, we'll explore the intricate landscape of your experiences, where challenges might have dimmed your inner spark and anxieties built hidden walls. Forget one-size-fits-all solutions. Our path is yours alone, uniquely crafted for you.
