I am known for having a friendly but assertive character that has earned me a respectable reputation as a very warm, professional and ethical counselor.

On the Fence About Going to Therapy?

If you don't know what you want, at least you must know what are the things you don't want. You've tried doing things your way and if it still does not work, instead of trying harder, I'd suggest to try differently.
