“In Japan, broken objects are often repaired with gold.  The flaw is seen as a unique piece of the object’s history, which adds to its beauty.  Consider this when you feel broken.”

Ms. Workman’s goal is to create a safe, supportive environment for her clients so they can work toward healing.  She believes each human needs to be heard and validated and works to encompass this philosophy.
