About

My specialty area is in helping people heal from chronic depression and complex trauma. Many of my clients come from backgrounds that predispose them to these problems - such as having a parent with a substance use problem, being the oldest sibling in a high-need family, or coming from an immigrant household. These environments teach you to grow up quickly and you learn to prioritize the needs of others over your own. Later in life, the self-sufficiency that was a strength in childhood can become a barrier to fulfilling adult relationships. No one taught you skills like saying no, setting boundaries, and reaching out for support.

Therapy is a safe and non-judgmental place to learn those skills. Together, we can help you identify your needs and express them in ways that don’t feel overwhelming or confrontational. We can also help you shed life-long beliefs about how prioritizing yourself means you are selfish or self-indulgent. These beliefs only lead to guilt and shame.

I know how hard it can be to take the first step and reach out for help. But I also know that nothing changes until you have the courage to take the first step towards healing. I would love to help you get started. You can book a consultation yourself at my website: ronikhol.com/get-started or you can also reach out to me via email or phone.
