Therapeutic Presence: “My therapy style is structured, science-backed, and person-centered—with a strong focus on accountability. Clients describe me as “relentless, insightful, and honest” in a way that feels both challenging and supportive. I don’t work harder than my clients. I require all clients to arrive prepared—with a notebook, a willingness to reflect, and provide updates on the work completed in between sessions.
 
I’ll call you out if you’re avoiding the work—respectfully, with clarity, and a belief in your capacity to change. This is a space for growth, not comfort.” But let’s be real — therapy works when you do the work in between sessions. If you’re ready to grow, recover, and get clear on what you need to feel like yourself (again)  — take the next step and reach out to The Nova Wellness Group, LLC.
