“A journey of a thousand miles
begins with a single step”
– Lao Tzu
My Approach
I chose the name Calathea - pronounced (kal- uh- thee - uh) because Calathea is a type of houseplant that symbolizes ‘new beginnings’ and ‘turning over a new leaf.’ Calathea plants will literally turn over new leaves at night.
​
This represents my own approach to therapy as I believe each individual has the ability to turn over a new leaf and start again, especially when it feels dark and as though nothing will change.
​
When working with clients my approach focuses on identifying each individual's unique qualities, strengths and connecting to their inner resilience. I use a variety of modalities and would describe my approach as Eclectic and Person - Centered.
​
I recognize that beginning therapy is not always easy, this is why I offer a 10 minute consultation so we can connect and see if we are a good fit. Feel free to reach out! I look forward to hearing from you.
