Online Individual Therapy
Fostering Healthy Relationships and Personal Empowerment
Superwoman,
Take Off That Cape!
Let’s be real, the expectation to be a successful professional, partner, and caregiver all while looking unbothered can take a toll. Who can blame you for believing in this mythological version of yourself? It has been reinforced for generations! Let’s redefine how you want to show up for yourself.
What’s At Stake?
Everything! Beneath the facade of invincibility lies a perilous reality. The weight of unattainable expectations presses heavily as you navigate the challenges of an unjust world, leaving in its wake a trail of stress and burnout.
Your relationships are negatively impacted, as the relentless pursuit of being superhuman alienates the possibility of genuine connections.
The price of subscribing to this narrative is TOO high! You are deserving of support that truly acknowledges the challenges and triumphs you have faced.
A turning point in your journey towards a renewed purpose and shifting from survival to blooming. Your narrative is no longer just about rescuing others or putting up a facade that you are okay.
You are building healthy self-care practices, acknowledging when you need more support, and creating deep connections that allows you to hang up your cape for continued solace.
Life Without The Cape Means…
What’s your Therapy Approach?
In my practice, I seamlessly blend the principles of psychodynamic, narrative, and solution-focused therapies to create a unique, holistic therapeutic experience. This integrative approach allows for a deep exploration of your past while empowering you to understand and rewrite your life story with narrative therapy, and focusing on building a hopeful, solution-driven future.
Narrative Therapy: Rewriting Your Story
Narrative therapy is based on the empowering idea that you are the author of your own life story. This therapeutic approach views problems as separate from people, suggesting that we inadvertently 'narrate' issues into our life stories. In narrative therapy, we work together to identify these narratives and understand how they influence your life. It's about exploring and rewriting these stories, transforming how you perceive and interact with your world. This approach doesn't just change how you view your challenges; it empowers you to reshape your life's narrative, fostering a sense of agency and renewed hope.
Solution-Focused Therapy: Building a Hopeful Future
Solution-focused therapy stands out for its forward-looking approach, concentrating on what you want to achieve rather than dwelling on past problems. This method is about identifying your goals and harnessing your innate strengths and resources to achieve them. We focus on what is working well in your life, building on these successes to create positive change. By fostering a sense of hope and empowerment, solution-focused therapy helps you envision a preferred future and take actionable steps towards realizing it. It's a collaborative and practical approach, tailored to help you find solutions and see tangible results in your life.
Putting it All Together With You
By combining these methodologies, I offer a comprehensive and flexible form of therapy tailored to meet your individual needs and goals. This synergy of techniques ensures that every aspect of your journey is acknowledged and addressed, providing a path to healing and self-discovery that is as unique as you are. What is most important to this process is building a therapeutic alliance. Reach out today to see if we might be a good fit to work together.
