Why should some one Try thearpy?

Do you ever feel like you just don’t fit in or have not found the right fit with a therapist before? Do you feel shame, guilt, and burn out in your life? Feeling like ‘no one gets it’. That has been a very personal experience for me and drives me to to help people find their fit and someone who understands them. I would love to work with you and help you find the change you are looking for.
