For a counseling relationship to be efficacious, there needs to be trust for the clinician which can be cultivated within a non-judgmental atmosphere. I seek to support my clients on their healing journey by offering a safe space to speak what is in their hearts and minds. I strongly believe that each client has the potential to transmute their emotional pain and life experiences in to the cultivation of personal power."
