My belief as a therapist and as a person is that all people, no matter where they are in life, are equipped with the innate ability to experience mental health.

My focus is to create a safe environment to educate and support clients while assisting them in meeting and exceeding their stated life goals.

Hello, i'm Randy. Despite being a therapist, I believe that no matter how many years of work experience a therapist has, and no matter how many credentials/degrees one has, all of that goes out the window if they don't have the ability to click and level with their clients. Initiating therapy services may feel like a leap of faith; as one would have to initiate a process in which they will be meeting with a therapist who is a complete stranger to them in the beginning. So congratulations on taking the first step for seeking treatment!
