Bringing All of You to Therapy, Including Your Political Beliefs
Yesterday, as people woke up to the election results, I noticed something in my sessions. Clients began with hesitation, apologizing, saying things like, “I don’t usually talk about politics,” or “I know we’re not supposed to bring this up.” Some were celebrating, others were grieving, but all were hesitant to talk about it. And each time, my heart ached a bit. Let me make this clear: nothing is off-limits in therapy. You are welcome here, fully and completely, with every thought, worry, and belief that’s weighing on you.
I believe deeply in holding space for the hard conversations. Therapy is where you’re allowed to say it all, where I’m here to walk with you as you explore the things that matter most, free of judgment or labels.
In times of uncertainty and division, the world pushes us into “us vs. them” mindsets. Our society is quick to label and divide us based on beliefs, urging us to take sides and judge. But that’s not what therapy is. Therapy is about holding space for all parts of you—the parts you’re sure of, the parts you question, and even the parts you think you should hide. Therapy is where you bring it all without fear of judgment.
The middle path I hold in therapy is about stepping back from divisiveness and walking alongside you in full acceptance. Here, we create space for complexity, without the need for labels or choosing sides. My passion, my role, is to offer you a place where you can explore, process, and be truly seen—free from expectations and judgment.
If there’s anything you should know, it’s that you don’t need to apologize for bringing your whole self into therapy. You are valued and honored here, and I am committed to holding that space with love, respect, and compassion. So bring it all. Let’s walk this path together, every step of the way.
