Trauma Focused Therapists in Wesley Chapel, FL

Everyone is different and comes to therapy with their own story and their own idea about what they'd like to gain or what they want the process to feel like. Regardless of any experience the therapist has, the individuality of each person should be respected above all else. I enjoy learning about people, which leads to guiding people to learn about themselves. I am a listener and observer who strives to make sure the people in my care feel supported and validated. People who tend to find success working with me have an idea of goals they'd like to meet and want a safe space to share ideas, feelings, and thoughts.
