Description

I am a warm, genuine, and compassionate therapist who provides a safe and non-judgmental space for self-exploration, emotion processing, recovery, and personal growth to occur. Built upon a foundation of trust, respect, openness, and empathy, I place a high value on the therapeutic relationship and believe it is essential to a positive therapeutic experience.
