Not accepting new clients at this time/ Hello! Are you looking to make positive changes in your life? I would be honored to share your journey and help you discover and develop strengths that will move you forward toward reaching your goals. Change is hard but is made easier with support and guidance. I offer you non-judgmental support in achieving the goals you wish to accomplish. I have experience working with a range of issues (anxiety, depression, substance abuse, relationships, trauma, grief and loss) and have a flexible approach based on individual needs. I draw from a variety of counseling theories and techniques.
Perhaps, the most important component in our work together is our therapeutic relationship, which I will thoroughly value and embrace. So, let's make some positive changes, have some fun, and get the most out of our lives. I invite you to join me on a journey to greater wisdom and wellness.
Feel free to reach out by phone or email.
