Norinee Thomas
I'm the baby of 4. I believe in the power of compassion and empathy to foster healing and growth. My therapeutic philosophy centers around active listening, compassion, and trust. I strive to create a space where you feel validated, supported, and understood.
I also utilize Myers-Briggs and Enneagram assessments to highlight core beliefs and strengths.
My approach ensures that you are met with empathy and respect, no matter what challenges you are facing.

I have had the privilege of providing individual and group counseling to diverse populations, including those experiencing homelessness, substance abuse, domestic violence, and sexual assault.
Strengths
My communication style is a very person-centered approach. I utilize active listening, rapport building, empathy, and open-ended questions. I also utilize Myers-Briggs and Enneagram assessments to highlight core beliefs and strengths.
