"We look forward to working with you to find your way back to a more authentic self."

"Note - I just opened up an extra day so I can take a few more clients. After 18 years as a psychologist, I still wake up every day excited about what I do because I know that even a short period of therapy can change people's lives in such positive, significant ways. We are all "works in progress," with our own individual dreams and struggles. Sometimes we feel anxious, sad, frustrated, angry, or unsure about how best to proceed. My approach is to compassionately and collaboratively, encourage a way to figure out together what gets in the way of your optimal happiness."

"My goal in therapy is to guide you on your journey to achieving overall wellness, allowing you to live to your fullest potential. I offer a compassionate, non judgemental and supportive atmosphere that supports utilizing your inner strengths to achieve your goals. I enjoy working with all age groups from 3 to 103!"

"As a person and a counsellor, I believe that everyone, regardless of life circumstances, wants to feel connected and understood. Unfortunately, in today's fast-paced society, often times people do not feel heard or listened to, connected to others, and least of all understood. This being said, I believe that the relationship developed between myself and my client is the most crucial component of counselling. It is my hope that at the end of your sessions, you will develop positive coping strategies while healing unresolved feelings; but above all, that you leave feeling heard, understood and cared for."

"Everybody comes to counselling with a unique issue & unique background, so one style of therapy does not fit everyone. Together we can discover the best approach to bring you back to a happy & productive life. I will simultaneously help you to gain insight into the root of what brings you to therapy, & help you to find your own solutions that best fit your life. I will provide you with coping strategies that you can use anywhere, any time, & teach you skills that you can use to make chages in your day to day life."

"I specialize in Emotional Eating and Weight Loss. Do you eat to relieve stress, to comfort yourself, or to feel happy? Out of all the people who use diet and exercise to lose weight only 5% have long term success. That's 95% of the people out there struggling and thinking they are to blame. You are not to blame because the problem is way more complex than diet and exercices....it's Emotional Eating. The good news is there is help and I'd love to hear from you."
