About Me
Why did you become a therapist, and what motivates you to continue?
As I was working as a certified occupational therapy assistant I realized that lots of my patients had depression and many other challenges so that's what turned me onto counseling.

I will listen to your stories. I will not be judgemental or make an opinion. Might ask questions to get clarification of what is being stated. I will be warm and genuine.
