My therapeutic philosophy begins with cultivating safety and trust. I understand that I am entering your private world, and this is a deep and sacred trust. Whether or not that trust has been violated by others in the past, I will create a sanctuary in which hurts that have created trauma, anxiety, and depression can be explored and understood.
