More about Peter
- 22 years' experience

- LPC
I am a warm, honest, and genuine therapist who allows a protective space for the client to develop their sense of self-growth. I bring a spirit of affirmation to individuals struggling with self-worth and purpose. My job is to empower others to challenge their perspective that may be aversive to their well-being. I want to explore ways to overcome emotional and mental challenges with the client. My many years of experience allows me to work with people of all cultural and situational backgrounds in a judgment-free space!
