My Personal Beliefs and Interests
As a therapist and corporate coach, I am deeply committed to providing equal access to therapy for everyone, regardless of their financial situation. I believe that mental health support should be available to all, which is why I offer a sliding scale for my services, ensuring that cost is not a barrier to receiving the care you deserve. Beyond my professional work, I am also an active volunteer, giving back to the community whenever possible, and an enthusiastic dog lover, who finds joy and companionship in our furry friends. My goal is to create a warm, supportive environment where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered to navigate life's challenges.
