Description

I bring empathy, encouragement and support, as well as my experience as a team lead and a mentor into the therapy room. I start with a comprehensive assessment, where we collaboratively set goals for our work together. I continuously monitor our progress and ask for your feedback and I and adjust my approach uniquely to your needs.

By creating an open and safe setting, I guide you in exploring who you are and how you can draw strength from your past, even if it is a traumatic one. I'm here for you by empathizing and by facilitating your growth, as well by taking the lead when you need a hand.
