Therapy with Josie is…
Warm, holds you accountable to your goals, collaborative, and creative! I aim to make a space for you to feel comfortable as your unique self (no masking or people pleasing required).
"It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the lesser." - Sam
