We’ll spend time talking about you as a person, not as a diagnosis. Your life, your friends, your career, what inspires you, and what keeps you up at night. You are always more than a label or your worst experience. We’ll find hope by looking at the different ways change is possible, starting with the therapeutic relationship.
I don’t model perfectionism. I’m actually very awkward and pretty predictable. I use humor, self-disclosure (when it’s appropriate), and I like asking why X, Y, and Z were important to you. I’ll be a broken-record about empowerment, self-love, and I’m not afraid to talk about the taboo. People are often afraid to talk about things like infidelity, trauma, sexuality, etc. because we carry so much shame around them. I try not cater to shame. I cater to real live people with real backstories and there’s nothing you can say that I can’t hear.
