I'm Toni McGivern and I am a licensed LMFT. I have been helping people for over 20 years. I work with couples, individuals, adults and teenagers. I have been married over 30 years and I love dogs, cooking, sports, and reading. I have a heart for those who are hurting. I know that it takes a lot of courage to take that first step, that first call to get help. Together, we can find what is possible in your life.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Therapy is a safe place to share your hurts and your dreams. In your first session, we will get to know one another and I need to learn where you are at and where you want to go.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strength is my love for working with people. Also, I care about feelings and believe they are important.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
If you are ready to move forward in your life, I am here to help.
