Healing emotional and traumatic wounds can be a hard and lengthy process. There is no one-size-fits-all approach or a miracle treatment. As I get to know you, I will offer a framework and interventions that are customized to best meet your unique needs and strengths. Be assured that this will be collaborative efforts, as I trust you to know yourself and your life better than anyone else.

Sometimes, our conversations will be tough, your raw, painful emotions will be invited to show up fully, and the answers you arrive at may not be what you expected. But you will gain greater understanding and insight into who you are authentically. Along the way, you will learn to apply practical tools that will help increase mindfulness, strengthen self-compassion, and make meaningful changes that align with your values and intentions.

Out of all the therapeutic interventions, I believe that the most important agent of change and healing is the therapeutic relationship that is based on trust, safety, authenticity, compassion, and unyielding hope.

THIS IS AT THE HEART OF CMC COUNSELING.
