welcome.
My approach to therapy is soulful and down to earth. My approach to therapy is eclectic, blending cognitive (thought-based) approaches with the somatic (body-based). I utilize a client-centered, strengths-based approach which means that I have tremendous respect for our internal self-righting mechanisms. I believe you are the expert on you and my job is to help you recognize and access your own healing capabilities.

welcome to the office!
You know, people come to therapy really for a blessing. Not so much to fix what's broken, but to get what's broken blessed.
