Therapy style

I have a passion for helping clients to deeply understand and accept themselves. I emphasize a person-centered, trauma-informed approach with knowledge of grief and loss, anxiety, and depression. I love offering hope and healing to clients who may have suffered for years with unresolved trauma. It is exciting to see clients transform from feeling downcast, depressed, and hopeless to seeing their experiences in a more balanced and accepting way; allowing them to move forward and live a more rewarding and satisfying life.
