My Approach to Helping

I see my clients as unique and valuable human beings. My approach is to work together with my clients, empowering them to enhance the quality of their lives.

More Info About My Practice

I recently took a course in which I learned more about how to help clients access the funding that is available to them through vehicle insurance when they are experiencing psychological trauma as a result of having been in a motor vehicle accident. Accident victims are entitled to this insurance money until ten years after the accident (and longer for those who were in a motor vehicle accident before the age of 18). I'm very pleased about this because it enables me to provide the trauma counseling at no financial cost to my clients.
