About

Plainly stated: a good number of people arrive worried that they will be a difficult client, having been told at some point that their history is complicated or that they are hard work. That is a cruel thing to have been told and it is almost never accurate. You will not be difficult. Post-traumatic presentations look complicated from the outside and are usually quite coherent once the underlying pattern is understood, which is what training in this area is for. Nothing you bring will be experienced by me as a burden. That is simply the job, and I chose it deliberately. Caregiving was the background of my childhood, which perhaps explains why I have very little patience for the idea that some people are too much. Nobody is. If you have been called complicated, get in touch. Complicated describes the presentation, not the person.
