Welcome to Your Journey of Self-Discovery and Connection
Hey there! I’m a therapist trainee specializing in relationships and personal growth. My approach is warm, compassionate, and grounded in helping you navigate life’s challenges with authenticity and resilience.
__________________________________
Embrace Your Uniqueness: As someone who values individuality and self-expression, I’m here to support you in embracing your true self and living authentically. Together, we’ll explore your values, beliefs, and aspirations, empowering you to create a life that aligns with who you truly are. I’ve walked my own path of self-discovery and learned to break free from societal norms and expectations, and I’m here to help you do the same.
Cultivate a Growth Mindset: I believe in the power of growth and transformation. Through our work together, we’ll cultivate a growth mindset, allowing you to approach challenges with curiosity and resilience. Together, we’ll explore new perspectives and strategies for personal and relational growth.
Relationship Redesign: Whether you’re navigating non-traditional relationships or seeking deeper connections in your personal life, I’m here to help. My approach is client-centered and collaborative, focusing on understanding your unique needs and goals. Together, we’ll explore communication skills, boundaries, and relational dynamics to support your journey toward meaningful connections.
Empowerment Through Therapy: In therapy, you’ll have the opportunity to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences in a safe and non-judgmental space. Through evidence-based interventions and experiential activities, we’ll work together to cultivate self-awareness, resilience, and empowerment.
Wherever you are on your path, know that you’re not alone. Therapy is a journey of self-discovery and growth, and I’m here to support you every step of the way. Are you ready to begin?
I practice under the supervision of Kevin Niehaus, PsyD, LPCC – Beach Cities Mental Health.
