The combination of my education and experience allows me to be clinically astute; what does that mean? It means that I am able to listen to what you are saying as well as read between the lines of what you are not. As a trauma informed therapist- it is also my job to read your body language. This will help you bring the unconscious, conscious and ultimately, help you feel better sooner.
