About me
Whether we realize it or not, we're all carrying around a bag: some of us carry a suitcase, others a backpack, and some push around a luggage cart or two overflowing with their bags. Why not downsize a bit? Therapy is all about you. Yes, you'll talk about other people, most likely. But it's not an hour about how they feel; it's an hour about how you feel. It's an hour to be completely open and honest about your life without judgement or interruption. And you deserve it. I have been practicing for 6 years in a variety of settings and meeting the need of an array of clients. I offer a safe and nonjudgemental space to learn, process, and improve your overall quality of life. You deserve to live life a little bit easier. I'm here to listen and be your support.
