The Journey of Healing
Are you ready to get on the path to a healthier you? Get in touch with me so you can get started.
Hi, I'm Tessa.
I I work with each of my clients to build skills and take action toward overcoming challenges and designing a fulfilling life.
My strength in being an effective counselor comes from the challenges I've overcome as a human. I processed the deep grief of losing my husband in Operation Iraqi Freedom while also navigating being a single mother. Before that, as a military spouse for 14 years, I learned how to adjust with what felt like constant location transitions. I've lived it, I understand.
I believe knowledge is power and I use my experiences of helping people in a wide variety of professions to create your own personalized therapy experience, perfectly tailored to you.
