Therapy style
My therapy approach is organic — I start where you present. We all need someone who can hold space for us in a non-judgmental yet directive way. My goals surround walking with people through their life journey to learn about themselves with curiosity through an empowerment perspective. The directions and next steps can naturally sprout from a space of confidence. I am honored to accompany fellow travelers on their journeys to becoming the best and grandest versions of themselves they can envision.
