My Approach to Helping
My communication style is calm, accommodating, humorous, and personable. I want my clients to feel comfortable talking with me about anything, and I pride myself on my ability to listen without judgment. I also pride myself in adding a light humorous energy to the session as appropriate to allow clients to have fun and laugh a little during the session.
