What sets Me apart...
Trauma and relationship challenges create confusion and pain. I will educate you about your symptoms and teach you necessary skills to create the life you want.
It may seem daunting to talk to a stranger about your experiences. I provide warmth and encouragement and my clients find me to be a supportive presence in their lives. I like to say I am part of their village.
Healing from our painful life experiences does take time, but I am a firm believer that you don't have to be in therapy for life! I think you will be surprised at how quickly you feel better with my efficient and focused approach.
You own your counseling process. I like to say, "You're the pilot, I'm the co-pilot." Your voice will always be heard and prioritized. If you've had a previous negative counseling experience, I'd love you to try again. With me.
