Therapists Don’t Give Advice. Here’s What We Actually Do…
And why “Flexible Perspectives” isn’t just a cute name.
If you're coming to therapy for answers... I have bad news. And good news.
The bad: I won’t tell you what to do.
The good: You don’t need someone to. You need someone to help you reframe what you think you know.
The Myth: A therapist is a person to tell you the answers.
The Reality: Most of what clients want has nothing to do with what “therapy school” teaches. These are two barely-touching Venn diagram circles.
My Approach: I help you realize that “reality” is just a heavily filtered perception…and we’re all pretty unreliable narrators.
Questions I Love to Ask:
“According to who?”
“What is the consequence of you being bold?”
“Whose voice is that in your head?”
