“Everyone has the capacity to interpret, influence, and create life events. We can choose what to do with the abilities and limitations we possess. Our thinking may affect the way we feel and behave. Would you like assistance in developing self-awareness and skills to manage life transitions? I provide a safe, non-judgmental environment; offering support and guidance as you gain insight to find answers to the conflicts in life. An effective therapeutic relationship is based on trust and rapport. I am dedicated to providing confidential, ethical, qualified assistance to help you promote personal growth and achieve therapeutic goals.

My approach in therapy is strength-based and person-centered. I focus on the person's frame of reference and the assets brought to therapy. I also use cognitive-behavioral approaches. I am warm, empathic; yet straightforward in helping others in search of change and growth.

I put a strong emphasis on multicultural awareness and skills in my practice. My broad range of experience includes individual hypnosis and training in self-hypnosis techniques(Diplomate-Erickson Hypnosis); neuro-linguistic programing; stress and adjustment disorders; adolescent disruptive behavior; managing ADHD; mandated Family and Teen Court requirements.”
