I became a therapist to offer a place of peace. I want to create an environment where the client is the priority, a space where they feel safe to do the work they feel ready and able to do. I became a therapist to offer a place of hospitality, empathy, and encouragement. I believe that healing and growth are possible and worth the effort in counseling. Therapy offers a space where you are valued, heard, and respected.
