I believe that one of most valuable terms in the English language is: "journey." Being a licensed therapist gives me opportunities to participate in therapeutic journeys with patients of different ages, backgrounds, experiences, and presenting issues. I am eager to start embarking on a therapeutic journey with you. While on our therapeutic journey, I may play various roles. For example, I may act as a tour guide by helping you find different paths to resolving problems. I may also be the outlet for your emotions, and the challenging tool for change. Most importantly, I will be your source of support along the way!
