High satisfaction rate with clients

Nice to meet you

My work with patients draws from several evidence-based modalities (which means they have been studied extensively and proven helpful to many people). However, in the years that I have been a therapist, I have found that the most important and helpful therapy ultimately comes from the shared experience that you form in treatment. The work that can be done in an emotionally safe space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and patterns and start to challenge what isn't working well or serving the person anymore in healthy ways.
