Faith Drew
I was born in South Korea and adopted at 5 months old. I grew up learning there are many internal characteristics and needs as humans, we all share. We all share a desire to connect and to belong. The way I grew up has influenced my profession as a couples therapist - I help people be in-relationship with one another honoring their autonomy and creating connection and belongingness. I am grateful for being adopted, being part of a loving family, sharing a life with my best friend, raising a tiny human and Westie, and helping my community. Find me @connectcouplestherapy.
