Therapy style

I am a people person. I am passionate about my work because I love what I do. I am a good listener. My style is laid back and I provide an emotionally safe environment, without judgment, for all my clients. Personally, I have been married for 20 years and am familiar with blended family dynamics with bio and step-children. I am a cancer survivor and currently care for my elderly parent. My mental health work history includes working at an inpatient psychiatric hospital as a clinician for six years, spending time with the patient as well as supporting the concerned family. In addition, I have worked as a mental health therapist for the past four years. I look forward to spending time with you.
