I am a licensed therapist with 20 years of professional work experience. I look to build a trusting client relationship and provide a safe space for you to share and work through sometimes difficult history and experiences as well as stress, anxiety, relationship issues, intimacy related issues, motivation, self-esteem, & confidence. I also have experience working with coping with life changes. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.
