I believe that every individual has a unique story. It is through understanding our personal story that we enter into healthy and fulfilling relationships. Your story may include depression, anxiety, abuse, trauma or a challenging life transition. It is my goal as a therapist to partner with you in your journey and to provide a comfortable and nurturing environment for personal insight, healing, and growth.
