Provider information

Description

Having social resources (family, friends, community, or a therapist) is as essential to the brain as glucose and oxygen. We all need support from one another; otherwise, we'd live in isolation. I help clients build strong relationships with themselves and others. Believing that a nurturing relationship is foundational to growth, the fit between client and therapist must feel right. To support this, I offer a free initial consult of 25-50 mins. If you're curious about my approach, please reach out to schedule a consult. Regardless of whether we work together, know that you are worthy of care.
