How to find the right mental health provider?
The therapeutic alliance is the process of building a trusting and healthy relationship with your mental health provider. Having a safe space where you can openly share your thoughts and feelings without judgment or criticism is the foundation necessary for positive mental health outcomes. Research shows that if you feel comfortable with your provider you are more likely to attend sessions regularly, share more personal details, and feel empowered to take the lead in your own healing.
When you are working with me, you have a judgement free zone where you are welcome no matter your age, gender identity, or cultural back ground. My aim is to meet you where you are and help you process and work through whatever is limiting you. Our struggles and strife are unique to each of us but that does not mean you need to face them alone. I am here to work side by side with you to build the skillsets and gain the tools to start thriving again.
