Brave One:

Coming to therapy is a courageous effort! My initial task is to create a therapeutic alliance that affirms you reached out at the right time and hope is possible! This journey we take together won't always be easy but with 15 years experience, working in many areas of behavioral health including forensics, inpatient medical and psychiatry, outpatient, consulting, substance abuse and private practice, you're in good hands. I bring a wealth of life experience that goes a long way too!
