Our foundational belief is in your resilience.
It guides us in tapping into your unique strengths and helping you feel a sense of HOPEFULNESS as we target the challenges you are facing.
Imagine sitting around a campfire, stars in the sky, pine and smoke scent in the air. You're surrounded by a ring of people, united by shared experience.
What led us here...
That feeling of deep connection is at the heart of Wolfson Therapy.
We want you to feel that we understand you on a deeper level, and can join together with you to help you strive towards reaching your full potential. In order to get there, you need to know that you’re working with someone who cares about you, who can sit with you even in your most vulnerable moments, and who genuinely believes in you.
Our team of therapists have the expertise and training to help you through grief, anxiety, life changes & more. But it is in the relationships we build, that true transformation takes place.
It isn’t always easy to seek out support, but you’ve already taken an important step, and I hope that we can make the process of connecting with a caring clinician who understands you and your needs as smooth as possible from here.
As the founder and director of Wolfson Therapy, I believe that everyone deserves individualized, connected support to help them adapt and grow.
I intimately understand the impacts of grief and loss, and have built on that lived experience with an academic curiosity that has led me to pursue advanced training in a number of frameworks to help my clients reach their goals.
My personal and professional journey has helped me identify the importance of building community to help us navigate life’s hurdles. We can't do it alone.
I am proud to be able to put these values into practice in my work and alongside the wonderful therapists I have brought together at Wolfson Therapy.
I’m so glad that you found us.

We will strive to make the space for challenging emotions together, while also embracing moments of lightness, as we need both to adapt and grow."
