Choosing a therapist can be a hard decision let alone deciding to seek therapy. Sometimes therapy is about venting to someone you can trust with your secrets; sometimes therapy is sort-term solution focused; and at times it can be long-term. Whatever you needs are; we will work on them together at your pace. Therapy is about you gaining the tools to face life's difficult stressors and situations.
