Get to Know Your Therapist, Shanae.

Change is rarely easy, and we often resist it until
staying the same becomes too painful. I believe
you are the expert in your own life. My role is to
support and encourage you while providing a
safe space where you can face challenges, ask big
questions, and discover the changes you’re
capable of making.
