I am a passionate professional with 20 years experience working with children, adolescents and adults. I have had the great privilege of working with people from a variety of backgrounds in a variety of settings. This gives me a great experience and perspective into how to best support those who I work with. It also means there are few things I haven't seen, heard or experienced. It is a great honor to be able to bare witness to people's stories and support them on their journey of self discovery and personal growth.

Sometimes seeking help in therapy is the best way to learn new coping skills, identify faulty thinking patterns, and develop new behaviors. I believe that therapy should be a safe and supportive environment that allows us to explore these issues together. I take an integrative approach with clients, understanding that people present with a variety of different needs. I believe that it is important to meet the client where they're at, utilizing a person-centered approach, listening without judgment and acknowledging the client's experience.

Our thoughts come from our emotions which are created by our experiences and influences in our lives. These thoughts affect our beliefs, perceptions and actions. They have become ingrained in us appearing to be natural or instinctual. You have the power to change this pattern and maximize your potential and happiness in all areas of your life; interpersonal and professional. My hope is through our therapeutic relationship we discover the positive and negative patterns in your life, learning techniques and resolutions which will allow you to be the architect of your future.

A supportive therapeutic relationship can have a deeply positive impact on individuals experiencing life changes or interpersonal challenges. I aim to create a space for clients to process what they are experiencing in a way that centers them and allows them to be vulnerable and honest, leading to healing and growth. My approach is eclectic, collaborative, supportive, and focuses on the client's goals and strengths. My work is rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy, relational dynamics and psychodynamic exploration.

As humans we all experience our own individual wellness. My goal is to enlighten, empower, and motivate all individuals I work with to move towards their own optimal level of wellness. Through collaborative efforts in understanding the connection between different areas of wellness, we are able to explore which area of your wellness is most compromised. In doing so, we will have the opportunity to explore coping skills that are effective in maintaining an appropriate level of wellness in all areas of life. I value the therapeutic relationship we will build along the way, and instill a high level of trust within our sessions.

Therapy is both, an art and a science. Effective therapy is both, laborious and liberating; while an effective therapist is someone who has experience, knowledge wisdom, awareness, humility, empathy, compassion, and what we in the field call "unconditional positive regard" for clients. Lastly, an effective client (read: possibly you) is anyone who seeks to foster self-awareness, self-care, self-actualization, and self-love. You deserve happiness, fulfillment, integrity, and peace. Perhaps this sounds trite and rhetorical, but give it some further consideration in your gut and in your soul. Listen to what each is yearning for.

Life is never without challenges, and in today's modern living, we are often left juggling chronic stress and problems in multiple areas of life.
