Personal Statement
I strive to listen unconditionally to every aspect of an individual’s life journey, emphasizing the importance of listening as a component to strong relationships. It is a privilege to engage and guide clients to a deeper understanding of hope, beliefs, values, and purpose in life. Healing, growth, and meaning are accomplished through a thought-filled therapeutic relationship.
