Since I was a young girl, I desired to help others. Others would often confide in me and I was often told that I have a soft heart. When I was growing up, a soft heart was viewed as a weakness and being too sensitive. I have since learned that the sensitivity that I have is by design and it’s a superpower. As I matured, I continued to be empathetic towards others and desired to help others navigate life’s obstacles. Years later I decided to embrace my gifs and my purpose unapologetically. With this sensitivity I use an eclectic approach tailored to the client’s specific needs. I have always had a heart for people. Since a young child I would listen to other problems and try to help them. Later in life, I realized that my connection to others was indeed a gift. Watching others face obstacles, make needed adjustments, and embrace change in order to heal is what continues to inspire and motivate me to do this work.
