Primary Clinician
"I entered the helping profession to provide a safe space for those individuals who are often without one, to be a safe and open person for those who have been harmed or judged by others, to hold space for those who want to learn more about themselves and be reminded just how far they can go in life. When you enter the therapeutic space with me, know that I am here for you. This is your time and I will meet you right where you are in this very moment."
