About me
I want you to feel heard and understood and accepted unconditionally! This is about you :)
I am very open and very reality-based as a person in general but particularly as a therapist. I care that you feel safe and comfortable and heard. I am sentimental and sappy and am very transparent so you don’t have to guess. I will share if you ask me…I have always felt that you have to nurture the soul of everything in order to care for the whole being. We aren’t just bits and pieces…we are complex and simple and vast and minuscule….we as humans share the desire to care for whole people….You know what I am talking about…we have to take care of each other from the Roots to Blooms :)
