Life is a series of transitions - some peaks and some valleys. I find these valleys often are a result of internal conflict and external events or pressure. I believe that we all have an authentic self and much of the internal conflict comes from living inauthentically, which develops into maladaptive behaviors. There’s “the way it seems” and “the way it is,” and sometimes we all need someone to remind us of “the way it is.” That’s where I come in - my goals are to work TOGETHER with you to navigate a new path toward living your most authentic life and finding inner peace and confidence to be that person.

It is my deep belief that we each strive to be our best selves. This journey can be difficult and requires that we are able to recognize our own personal strengths and values. Clients should see the results of therapy in a measurable amount of time. This belief is where I begin treatment with the clients presenting problem guiding services.

SUCCESS IS WITHIN REACH" I am gentle yet firmly persistent in helping clients find direction, making choices of right and wrong and uncovering their ability to tell reality from distortion and delusion. My clients find the counseling experience positive, insightful and intellectual which opens the doors of lasting happiness and sense of reality for them. The introspection, self examination and self actualization greatly increases their sensitivity and attitude about what is really important in human experience and opens the doors of happiness and sense of reality." My counseling approach gives clients insight to follow for greater understanding and self actualization.

Change can be frightening and growth that results from changes in our life or sadly a crisis can be challenging or debilitating. Relationships at home and work maybe urging you to make changes.
