The approach I use will give you the skills to keep you safe and replace your feelings of hopelessness and worthlessness with happiness and peace. We are all ultimately seeking happiness and to decrease our suffering. It is especially difficult during these times to believe that we are valuable, lovable and have a hope of happiness.
We can work together to help you build a life worth living. You will believe there is some hope when you start to see a glimmer of results. I can help by using the Dialectical Behavioral Therapy informed treatment approach. This approach will give you the skills to keep you safe and replace your feelings of hopelessness and worthlessness with happiness and peace. I invite you to take a leap with me.
