Description
Using a warm and compassionate approach, I take the time to learn about you and understand your thoughts and feelings. Together we will figure out your goals for our time together and how I’ll be able to help you best. From there I use my training to help you on your journey toward meeting those goals, for example: improving your mood, managing your anxiety better, working through loss, or improving your interpersonal relationships.
