Meet Bowra

Do you feel stuck in your personal life or your relationship? Are your thoughts of constant worry, hopelessness, uncertainty overwhelming your day-to-day journey? Have you decided it's time that you approach these feelings and emotions head-on? Therapy is a brave and powerful first step towards exploring what might be contributing to these feelings. I help address these experiences by utilizing a goal-oriented and solution-focused, cognitive-behavioral approach (CBT). I work with clients to help support them in bringing their strength in the room and allowing them to be able to get in touch with their inner self. I work together with you to determine the best course of action and provide tools for individualized exploration and growth. My approach is non-judgmental and supportive.

I work with clients to help support them in bringing their strength in the room and allowing them to be able to get in touch with their inner self.
