Individual Therapy
“We do not learn from experience. We learn from reflection upon experience.”
-John Dewey
Sometimes, situations and experiences occur in life that are out of our control. How we cope with life’s hardships and uncertainties makes all the difference in our present day mental health. Talking to someone (either a trusted loved one or trusted mental health therapist) may help us de-construct, construct, and re-construct a narrative to our experience.
“Loneliness does not come from being alone, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important.” -C.G. Jung
Here are some benefits to talking to someone and engaging in personal mental health therapy:
Learn healthy coping mechanisms and tools to deal with life’s stressors
Overcome and/or learn to live with past trauma
Improved relationships
Helps with anxiety and depression
Helps with communication skills
Betters the relationship with yourself through compassion and understanding
…and the list goes on!
As a therapist, I understand that you are the expert of your experience. My aim is to collaborate with you and work with you to create new positive experiences and help give meaning to past heartache.
