Personal growth is an ongoing process that often requires focused attention and accompaniment. Results are based on the ability to built a trusting relationship that is interactive and collaborative. I am a bilingual, licensed, therapist that has worked in field for over 30 years. My interactive style tends to be warm, engaging and down to earth; while at the same time being clear and direct. I am also known to introduce creative and humorous approaches to the interactive process and the presenting challenges. This occurs through a "strengths based" approach and in a relaxed and welcoming setting.

For 20 years I have worked with adults facing difficult life stressors including relationship difficulties, separation, divorce, trauma, substance abuse, grief issues. I work with clients in an empathic way which fosters self-awareness and positive change. I integrate resilience principles and insight oriented/interpersonal strategies with cognitive-behavioral therapy, to promote coping skills and build self esteem. My specialties include depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties and grief.

As the Director of Resolutions Therapy Center, I bring a wealth of experience, having dedicated twenty-eight years to supporting couples, individuals, adolescents, and children.

My job is to help my client realize his/her goals. Through our sessions we will discuss issues, behaviours, anxieties, stressors and coping mechanisms. A history and understanding family dynamics will help use to change patterns of behavior that are no longer necessary as they were in the past .
