" My personal statement can briefly be summed up in the Serenty Prayer "God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Those are the keys..acceptance, courage, and widom, guided by faith. I feel that's what I bring to the table. Many people have a good education or years of experience. But a great therapist must also inspire, motivate, comfort, and empower their clients to fully engage in their own journey to greater fulfillment, affection, and wholeness. If you have further questions about therapy with me, just call. I'll be happy to speak with you."
