It has been and continues to be an honor to hold space for others, while they overcome challenges and improve their lives. ••• “ I will not rescue you, for you are not powerless. I will not fix you, for you are not broken. I will not heal you, for I see you in your wholeness. I will walk with you through the darkness as you remember your light.” Sheree Bliss Tisley ••• I look forward to supporting you on your journey of healing.

I chose Ife because she has a holistic view on healing. She is open-minded and didn’t blink when I told her I have an alternate religion. She is so warm and welcoming and non-judgmental. She is a breath of fresh air in my therapy journey.
