"Be yourself.
Everyone else is already taken"
- Oscar Wilde

When I was nine years old I made a list of what I wanted to be when I grew up and it read:
​
-
Psychologist
-
Physical Therapist
-
Flower Deliverer
(this is a 100% true story and I will gladly post a photo of it when I find it one day!)
I remember knowing that I wanted to make peoples lives better. I feel like becoming a therapist was part of me since I was little and it was bound to happen. Becoming a physical therapist may not have been that far off base as I am intrigued by and continue to learn more about how we store trauma in our bodies and how I can incorporate that into sessions (so stay tuned!). As for a flower deliverer, perhaps that will come into play in the future, I mean, who can resist the opportunity to bring joy to people all day long?
I am originally from Maryland and made my way out to Arizona to escape the cold and soak up the heat (believe it or not). I’m a rare breed who doesn’t really mind the heat and will take it over the cold any day.
