I tailor every session to your individual needs.
I have extensive training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and the Gottman Method. Through these therapies, I can help you achieve long-lasting changes that stick. There may be a feeling of warmth and festivity in the air as the seasons change, so why is. Communicate, Communicate some more, And Now Again!
