The pursuit of one's most intimate changes is the greatest adventure of our humanity. Changes that push through dark fears, hopelessness and an isolating emptiness. Changes that may take long hours to years of dedicating oneself to endure one's ethics, evolve one's love and persuade that elusive hope. The privilege to closely watch, understand and participate in this journey of a fellow human is that of the therapist’s.
Effective work in therapy begins within a secure space and a mindful dialogue that opens the client to discover new ways of seeing the familiar and old. Inextricably woven into this discovery is a deeper appreciation of one's struggles and purposeful acceptance of one's strengths. While treading this path new possibilities for expression, feeling and relating emerge. Therapeutic focus is on changes that matter to the client.
