About

I have been a therapist for over 35 years. I enjoy working with people and my philosophy is to help people to help themselves. I am empathetic and kind but will challenge you and give you much to do and think about. It doesn't matter what you've done or say, nothing will be judged by myself. You can be who you are and I will be there for you.
