I have years of experience helping people overcome these kinds of struggles in order to find a sense of peace and fulfillment. People who know me best would say I'm smart, down-to-earth, easy to talk to, and a kind-hearted soul. I love getting to know people, listening to their stories, providing support, and utilizing my professional knowledge to help people find change. I know it can be hard to find a therapist, and I believe connection and trust are the most important things to look for in a therapeutic relationship.
