I enjoy therapy and have come to learn that perspective is a tool that often gives rise to insight. When one changes the way they look at things, the things they look at change. Change is painful and can be difficult, but I know through experience that most things are usually difficult before they are easy.

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional counselor who is passionate about taking on the journey with people to assist them with identifying the interconnections of different parts of their lives. Once the relations are known, it is easier to understand the way each part affects another.

I looked for therapy because I really wanted to talk, or vent, about life, problems, and things that I usually do not talk to other people. Gaelle provided me with a friendly environment where I could share things and not feel judged and I love that.
