I conduct a bio/psycho/social assessment, present a treatment hypothesis with my client and therapy options available. We are on a therapy journey together. You will always know where we are heading, and how we are getting there. I work with the shy, the people in pain, the shamed, the traumatised, the curious, and the hurt. You are safe with me.
