William is personable, friendly, and will utilize humor to lighten sessions, if appropriate. William believes it is most important to be honest with clients as absolute truth has no owners. His belief is that truth requires one to be honest with themselves and react accordingly. He recognizes it can be difficult; and it has the ability to allow people freedom to make more honest, holistic choices about their situations. This is done with kindness because truth can also be heavy.

William also believes that everyone deserves to be affirmed in their identity, and it is really important to help people become more aligned with who they see themselves to be.
