Developing trust with your therapist is the most important first step in a therapeutic relationship. I work with individuals experiencing past trauma, abuse, neglect, domestic violence, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, career challenges, or life transitions. Together, we’ll develop therapy goals and build coping and management skills. I’m dedicated to providing the highest quality of care and ensuring my clients trust that I have their best interests in mind.
