There is often a fear in ‘opening up’ to someone and expressing those intrusive thoughts even to someone you might know because there is a lack of trust and again the fear that comes with expressing one’s thoughts and emotions.

I strive to create a therapeutic relationship built on trust, empathy, warmth, and unconditional positive regard which are attributes that I consider to be most important. Together, we can work towards your growth, and help you to overcome challenges, build healthier relationships and improve your overall well-being.
