Message to clients
Reaching out for help when you're struggling with an issue can feel daunting but it can be one of the best things you do for yourself. Therapy doesn't necessarily need to be a long-term process. Some clients come in for just a few sessions, others choose to continue longer to address issues on a deeper level. My goal with everyone I work with is to provide a warm, safe environment where issues can be explored, and you can begin to address your concerns in a way that works for you.
