When we start our work together, we will be figuring out how to build that trust and communication so that you can do t...

We can start wherever you are. Therapy can serve different purposes at different times. It might be a space to slow things down, to make sense of experiences, or to experiment with new ways of responding to challenges. We adjust the focus as your needs become c...
