Training & Qualifications
I have completed an associate's degree in psychology. I have studied psychology of personality, social psychology, developmental psychology, cognitive psychology, biological psychology, child and adolescent psychology, and abnormal psychology. I have also taken introductory courses in sociology and social work. I graduated with high honors.
Friends describe me as a wonderful listener. I am patient, polite, respectful, and compassionate. My job is to create an environment where the individual feels safe to speak freely, knowing that I am genuinely interested in their opinions and perspectives, and that I sincerely care about what they have to share with me.
I know firsthand how difficult it can be to find someone willing to give you their undivided attention, especially in the 21st century; and yet I believe it is so essential to our wellbeing and success as individuals and as a society to ensure that we all have people in our lives whom we can turn to for support in times of need. My goal is to provide that support for those who may not otherwise receive it.
