Let's Connect (442) 239-6350
My ideal client is anyone in need of clarity, reassurance, and direction to find the path to their best self: their most confident, compassionate, easygoing, focused, and understanding aspects of who they are and how they wish to calmly be themselves in every part of their life.
I believe that every client should be treated with Unconditional Positive Regard. There is no "You" and "I", just "Us." We are on the road to healing together. I am merely a Sherpa on the road back to yourself. My purpose is to help you recognize and recapture your goodness and inherent value.
The phone can feel five hundred pounds when you call for help. Please know that I will help lighten your journey by accepting you just as you are. You need only to bring yourself with you to our first appointment. You will be welcomed unconditionally. Let the best chapter of your life begin...
