IT’S TIME TO INVEST IN YOU.
callie papa ma, lmft
You're done feeling
stuck in your life and relationships.
You're tired of feeling burdened by relationships. You’re done with feeling like you can’t stand up for yourself with other people or be authentically you. Anxiety can say goodbye! You’re ready to stop these painful cycles from recurring and create a life that fulfills you.
You’re ready to live a life you’re proud of - to feel confident and self-assured with the decisions you make and the relationships you participate in.
I believe you have what it takes to be the person you’ve always dreamed of being.
You’re in the right spot.
How I work
At the core of my approach to therapy is a belief that relationships are essential to healing
Therapy with me isn’t just sitting and nodding along - I’m collaborating and engaging right alongside you. We will explore the hard things, the good things, and everything in between. I’m in this with you!
Together, we’ll take a look at your past, present, and future - all at a pace that feels right for you. My approach combines Relational and Person-Centered modalities with Trauma-Informed care. That means I believe:
Your relationships have an immense impact on how you understand your thoughts, behaviors, and patterns
Your experiences shape the way you look at the world around you.
You know yourself best, and you’re looking to grow into a better you!
Because my approach to therapy is relational, I place the utmost value on my relationship with clients. Therapy together is built on a supportive, secure, and trusting relationship serving as a model on what healthy, collaborative relationships can look and feel like. I believe relationships like this give you more insight about you and your other relationships.
HEre’s what I believe about therapy:
This isn't about becoming someone "different."
You already have what it takes to grow and heal. Therapy is about enhancing all the qualities you have instilled within you. It’s time to let the real version of you shine!
The best investment you can make is in yourself.
You are stuck with you for the rest of your life. (And I think that’s a great thing!) Becoming a better version of you takes quality time and energy, but it’s so worth it in the end! Who better to invest in than you?!
You are inherently deserving of healthy, loving relationships.
Your brain might be telling you the opposite - but I’m here to tell you that you deserve a life worth living, full of secure and joyful relationships and experiences!
This is a space designed entirely for you.
Therapy is for you and all about you. My role is to honor and respect the path that you are on, while providing you with the guidance and support you’re looking for.
Get the support that’s right for you.
