I take a holistic approach to healing, because more often than not the environments that contribute to strife are all encompassing. The path to healing is not linear, and I enjoy aiding individuals through an eclectic approach tailored to fit their needs. I consider myself a trauma therapist & work with children, adolescents, and adults of all ages. It's not about what's wrong with you- it's about what happened to you. I do not view a client as a diagnosis. My approach is to treat clients as an individual rather than a set of symptoms.
