Clients who are truly ready to for participate in their own personal growth from therapy are encouraged to reach out. Highly organized professionals have sought out therapy at different times in their lives due to an undercurrent of constant stress, stemming from an unknown source.

As a therapist, I will provide a safe space to experience vulnerabilities, learn strengths, and overcome these obstacles. But, I will expect my clients maintain their responsibility of participation in the therapeutic process.
