As a therapist, my ideal client would be someone that is willing; willing to attend sessions regularly, willing to try new things, willing to engage and willing to explore their concerns. With that being said, I believe I am tasked with creating an environment that is safe for my clients to be able to show up and feel they can become vulnerable with me. Otherwise, I encourage my clients to come as they are with whatever concerns they have and we will work together to improve on their goals.

After 27 years of working in the mental health field, in 3 different countries, I have an appreciation for the fact that life rarely goes according to plan. Perhaps you’re struggling with feeling anxious, depressed, or unfulfilled with some part of your life, or you find yourself longing for deeper, more meaningful relationships. Have you lived through traumatic events (whether recent or long ago) that have changed you in ways you don’t understand, caused you to react unpredictably...made you feel like a stranger to yourself, & you’re struggling to cope? I believe in meeting you where you're at, with compassion, & without judgment.

The problem is the problem, the person is not the problem. – Michael White and David Epston. The problems that you face do not have to define you as a person. Perhaps the mental health struggles that challenge you have made you feel lost or overwhelmed. Whether it be depression, anxiety, trauma, or any other emotions that you feel like are holding you back, let's find a way to separate you from your problems. Learn to coexist with the challenges you have and learn how to better handle them so that you can have a more fulfilling life.

I work with people who want to move from emotional pain, conflict or confusion toward more happiness, peace and passion in their life, work, and relationships.
