Look Beyond Your Label

Feb 10, 2023

If you are looking for a diagnosis or label, I am NOT the therapist for you. 

During my time as a special education teacher, I got firsthand experience of the vast benefits and hindrances that come with a diagnosis, especially a misdiagnosis. While I witnessed many children absolutely thrive on the extra services, time, and accommodations that come with being in special education; I also witnessed a disproportionate amount of students fall further and further behind because the adults in their life expected less of them due to their label.

I choose to see you and not your label. Of course, it is possible that after we establish a therapeutic relationship and get to know each other better, a diagnosis or label could be appropriate. With all the therapeutic progress I have achieved with my clients, whether it be overcoming trauma, anxiety, stress management, or self-confidence, it has rarely required a diagnosis. If you really want one however, I can refer you to some great psychiatrists and agencies in the area. 

If you are looking to find who you are and are ready to forge your own path, beyond any label, book your first session to begin discovering YOU.
