Resources

Deciding to go to therapy and then finding a therapist can be difficult processes. As part of my dedication to the wellness of my potential clients, I have this link to help with that process.

Wary of therapy? You’re not alone. If you’d like to read more about therapy, effectiveness, and other information click here for more information from the American Psychological Association.
