HI. I have been working in the field of therapy for over 10 years. I am certified in TFCBT (trauma focused CBT), Anxiety and ADHD. I feel that providing psychoeducation is also important, especially when it comes to parent/child relationships. I am easy going, yet I will be blunt up front, however, having said that, I do my best to always be respectful to everyone. I have my degree(s) specializing in Psychology as I find that learning more about the brain and how we as humans react is truly fascinating. I believe that everyone deserves respect and its ok to ask for help at times- without judgement. Lets talk!
