About
Life is puzzling in both its perplexity and in that it resembles one. Where we attempt to find the edge pieces for some kind of outline/guide, discover which pieces fit together, constantly looking at the bigger picture, realizing it’s going to take some time to complete, and having someone join in can be helpful and/or fun. I do so in order to simplify a section of their life puzzle piece as they are attempting to find where it goes and how it fits in the bigger picture. That might include trauma focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy, DBT skills, Motivational Interviewing, solution focused therapy, and learned self-compassion.
I’ve worked with individuals regarding crisis management, anxiety, depression, life transitions, substance abuse, interpersonal relationships, and identity (sexuality, self, faith) within diverse populations to include BIPOC, LGBTQ+, military, and multicultural refugee populations.
I believe you are the author of your own story. You are the writer, creator, and decision maker. I’m just a part of the editing team where you ask for support. Word for word, page by page, chapter by chapter, I am privileged to read and see how it started, how the plot develops, but never will I know the ending. Now let’s pick up that pen and write.
