I believe that physical and emotional safety and connection within a therapeutic relationship can help clients access and heal their relationships with themselves and others. For this reason, I deeply value the relationship I form with clients.

Along with awareness, practice, insight, and self-compassion, KAP offers clients an opportunity to see themselves and others from a new perspective. KAP also enables new neural pathways to grow, supporting healthier habits of mind and behavior.
