Message to clients

The therapeutic relationship is most important and I use a person-centered approach to meet clients where they’re at and work to build a strong rapport and connection with my clients. We’re all people first and I enjoy learning about what makes each individual person unique. I want to be able to co-create a space where my clients can learn to be and accept their authentic selves, feel safe to explore and feel their feelings, and learn/practice the skills needed to create more harmony and balance in their lives.
