WHAT MAKES UP A PROBLEM?
In addressing mental health concerns, I understand that problems are multifaceted and unique to each individual. A problem involves a complex interplay of factors, not just symptoms.

Through personalized strategies, I aim to help individuals navigate challenges and work towards a healthier and more fulfilling life.
