I hope you’ll take a moment to realize that you already took an important step toward your wellness by asking for help. Asking for help is not easy but every one of us has benefited from support from others. Sometimes life gives us more than we can handle on our own or through our natural support systems. In therapy, we will work together to learn how to handle life’s stressors in healthy ways, ways that are unique to you and your experience. Therapy also helps you gain better insight into yourself, your strengths, your experiences, and your environment. Whether you want to express yourself through art, movement, play, or words, I strive to provide a safe, inclusive, and engaging space for you. It is an honor to help guide you during your healing and growing journey.
