— "A lot is happening in the world, so it's no surprise that many people are struggling with isolation, low self-worth, grief, depression, or anxiety. No matter your struggle, I am glad you are here seeking support. I want to help you find or return to your best self. Let's work together to find your path, remove obstacles and get you focused on the life you really want to live. I am a strengths-based therapist and person. People I have worked with in therapy describe me as "real," "genuine," and "easy to talk to." I will listen, carefully listen to you, and hear you so that together, we can build a care plan that reflects your specific needs and the support you are seeking. I would be honored to journey with you as you begin to understand and like yourself better and can then enjoy the benefits of self-worth as it spills into your career, partnerships, parenting, work, and play. I am an ally to all. At this time, I see people age 17 and over".
