What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we will talk about you and your needs in a whole sense, focusing on a priority and moving on from there.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My cumulative nursing/nurse practitioner experience has built upon a holistic appreciation of families, mothers, children. In this, I deeply enjoy supporting women from teens to adult for the mental well-being and empowerment. I particularly enjoy children in the adolescent years, 13-19.
