FREE 2O MINUTE CONSULTATION
Because I believe strongly in the importance of a good fit between psychotherapist and client, I’d love to meet with you for FREE to determine if we have that fit. It will give us a chance to get to know each other a little better, for you to ask any questions you may have, and for us to create a plan for our work together.
