Welcome to beginning your therapeutic journey!
Feel proud in yourself for taking these first steps and I am genuinely honored you've chosen to begin this process with me. I wonder if you have ever felt over-whelmed, irritated, fatigued or having little energy due to feelings of depression or anxious thoughts? Perhaps finding yourself experiencing loneliness, life transitions, difficult decisions or lacking hope? My goal is to create a supportive, judgement-free safe space for you to explore what's bringing you stress and difficulties while gaining insight and therapeutic tools together towards your personal growth, and wellness.
I have over 30 years as an LCSW in the mental health field with extensive knowledge and experience providing Individual and Family therapy with adults as well as adolescents. When you begin therapy you should expect a warm, therapeutic and confidential environment that is compassionate, empathetic, safe and is centered towards your specific treatment goals
I look forward to meeting with you and working together working in a partnership to develop a therapeutic relationship while working together towards your goals and aspirations.
