We all have places where we feel stuck and where it is too painful or unsettling to stay open. These experiences are the hardest to understand and resolve on our own. We need caring and curious attention from another toward exactly these places. A safe counseling relationship allows the courage to face our struggles and find the resilience needed to be confident and open again.

The help of an emotionally attuned and clinically trained therapist is invaluable. Turning toward the parts of ourselves we have disconnected from, and working through the unresolved issues, leads us to naturally positive moods, self-acceptance, and availability for satisfying connection with others. You’re probably reading this because part of you wants support through this difficult time. I know reaching out is difficult, yet I believe it is a natural human impulse to look to others for support.
