Therapy style

One of my specialty areas is chronic illness (i.e., chronic pain). I have many years of experience working with the chronic illness population. The struggles that chronically ill people go through are unique and I am here to help you navigate through them. I would love the opportunity to guide you to a stronger, healthier you by providing you with various tools that can help you overcome your struggles. I believe in empowering you with a safe space to express yourself. You are valuable, and every moment in this journey is worthwhile, even those that are difficult. Let's embark on this transformative journey together.
