Great to meet you!

My name is Chad and I've been practicing in various capacities for the past 14 years. I love working with people to identify current issues and help them move towards wellness.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I use a person-centered approach with roots in cognitive behavioral therapy. I believe the connection between therapist and client is paramount.

What you can expect from our first session

My goal is to get you to a place where you are enjoying your day to day life, where you are comfortable to just sit and be, without the need for distraction.
