I believe that therapy is most effective when it is a combination of intellectual understanding and emotional experience. In that regard, it feels like your feelings are our road signs that we are in the right track to self-growth. I try to not have a specific agenda going into sessions, but rather to go where it is you feel like you need to go at that time. I believe that it is my role to create a safe space...

What is important is that you have decided to begin the quest of understanding your past and present, and determining your future. I can join you on this quest. I have a broad experience across t...
