I enjoy getting to know my clients and hearing them share their stories. I've found that being a better listener is more effective than having something to say. I certainly do have things to say, but it really helps to hear a client's perspective of the problem(s) they are experiencing or have suffered with.

David knows when to listen and when to ask questions. He is patient, kind, and thoughtful.

Welcome to my practice! Therapy can be a frightening, overwhelming process, yet one of the most rewarding and life-changing experiences of your life. It allows you to be YOU, feel safe, and gain the insight and mindfulness you need to be in control of yourself. Through your weaknesses and strengths, you will learn to embrace every experience.

Brenda has been such a huge supporter and savior throughout my mental health journey. She is able to truly understand my experiences and work with me to come up with techniques to make me feel like the best version of myself. This experience has been such a relief for me.
