I value the individuality of each and every one of my clients, and I believe the relationship we form is the basis for real change and growth. I am incredibly passionate about the therapeutic process, and not only that, I believe in it with all my heart. I am committed to understanding my clients very deeply, and in helping them understand themselves. In addition to gaining insight and awareness, I encourage clients to utilize skills and implement change to help them live life to their fullest. I give 100% of my effort, attention, and focus on my clients to provide the best care needed.
