For some, the hesitation lies in this question: "Why would I go to a stranger to discuss some of my most vulnerable and challenging life moments?" My answer is that doing so is the biggest benefit. The therapeutic relationship between you and a licensed counselor allows you to explore all parts of yourself without having to be concerned about how what you are sharing may impact anyone other than you. 

In this space, you get to remove the mask you feel you must put on to face your world. That’s where the work begins. I’m not here to judge you. I am here to assist you in understanding all parts of you. We work together to identify the areas you feel you want to improve as well as learn the right skills that will help you accomplish those goals. The truth of the matter is that it will be hard work, but the end goal will be worth it.
