Accepting individual female new clients aged 15+ for weekly appts or extended EMDR sessions only.
My clients describe me as:
Warm, easygoing, direct, "real", easy to talk to and start to trust.
Something to know about my approach is:
I am not the therapist who will just "umm hmm" and "How does that make you feel"...I'm much more direct than many therapists, though I will go at your pace. I am EMDR certified but I do not use EMDR with every client if it is not needed or desired.
Together, we will:
Take an honest look at what you have been carrying around with you and how you can start to put what has been weighing on you down, piece by piece. Life throws a lot of stuff at us - It's helpful to have someone to help you sort it all out.
I specialize in working with people who:
are having difficulty in their relationships (family, friends, spouse...), feel that no one understands them, and/or who have difficulty getting out of their own way. My clients often describes themselves as "hot messes", hence Hot Mess Counseling!
I became a therapist because:
people have always opened up easily to me. I love having real, deep conversations about the important stuff. Small talk is for the birds ;)
Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:
my labradoodle, Rocky, joins my in person sessions and will often give you a snuggle and try to give you kisses if you let him!
More about me and my practice:
I have a hybrid practice with about half of my clients coming in person and half online. Some just like being at home, some see me on their lunch break, and of course all of my clients in MA are via video but they also get later availability!
