Therapy is not always easy, but I’ll offer guidance and support. We’ll discuss strategies to help you develop more agency in life. I draw upon practices that are inf...

Using this as a starting point, I view therapy as an opportunity for my clients to safely explore the self, which involves taking a closer, m...
