I believe in helping others change self defeating thoughts and destructive behavioral patterns, in order to aid them in living a life in which they can find happiness. I consider it a privilege to collaborate with people as they make those changes, and to help them navigate through the many challenges of life. I am a military veteran familiar with military culture and the common struggles that come with a military commitment. I am also a Certified Meditation Teacher & Coach. I am passionate about guiding and teaching meditation, and supporting others on their path to developing and sustaining a daily practice.
I work with individuals and couples, and I particularly enjoy, and am skilled at working with people that struggle with many types of problems. Some of those problems include depression, anxiety, destructive behaviors, parenting issues, stress management, trauma, relationship issues, building self esteem, and grief and loss.
I am also experienced in using spiritual principles and faith based knowledge, but I will never impose my personal beliefs on anyone. I look forward to seeing you on your journey to emotional wellness.
