Description
I believe that therapy should feel less clinical and prioritize responding to the unique needs of my clients. I find that all clients come with their own strengths and wisdom, and I emphasize fostering a safe, non-judgmental, trusting space for deeper exploration at a pace that feels comfortable. I feel passionate about empowering my clients in navigating their thoughts, challenges, emotions, resources, values, trauma, fears, hopes, and relationships.
