Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Our first session will focus on getting to know each other and sharing brief history, your wants and needs. Over time, we will work together to build a "toolkit" of helpful strategies to manage symptoms, stress, emotions, behaviors, relationships and life transitions. There is light at the end of the tunnel and you don’t have to get there by yourself.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I use a person centered, strengths-based approach to build a true partnership with clients. I provide a safe, nurturing, compassionate and judgement free space fostering growth and healing. I am here to listen, support, encourage and teach.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
If you are having difficulty adjusting, feeling depressed, anxious or lonely, I am here to provide support and walk with you through your journey.
