I have been practicing therapy for over 10 years but more importantly I have done the work myself. The one thing I can promise is that it is easier with someone you trust. I hope I can be that person for you! Thank you.

We live in a world where fear and anxiety take the wheel but we crave solid ground. You just want a "normal" day; whatever that means.
