As a practical, interactive, and compassionate therapist, my treatment approach blends both conventional and alternative approaches, embracing an array of styles and techniques personally tailored for you. With more than a decade of both clinical and teaching experience, I work collaboratively with you in identifying long-standing patterns, facing current problems, and creating more satisfying relationships.
People have the strength and resilience to change. I am confident that with awareness, acceptance, and action you too can create the changes you want toward a happier, healthier you. Integrating insight, guidance, and clinical expertise I can help you build on your strengths to resolve challenges and achieve life goals. Therapy can be an empowering and life-changing experience.
Life is a journey and not a destination; every journey begins with a single step in the right direction. If you’re ready to seek the help and healing you need to begin your journey and want to welcome hope and health into your life – call now. You can do it, and I can help.
