What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I utilize different therapy approaches and combinations based on the client's needs. Sessions are a non-judgmental, honest and respectful zone. The main goal is to develop an attainable and individualized treatment plan with the client that focuses on healing and the desired outcome.
