First things first, it is vital to me that you, my future clients, know that I feel honored to hold space for you. I am confident in my ability to uphold my responsibility to you, but one thing that providing patient care for 22 years has taught me is that you, the patient, is the best informant to your care. It is of utmost importance that my clients feel safe, heard, and respected.
