“Sincerity, empathy, compassion and authenticity all integral to the therapeutic relationship. Empathy is simply listening, holding space, withholding judgement, emotionally connecting and communicating that incredibly healing message of you are not alone. I build deeper relationships with my clients through warmth and acceptance.”
