"I believe in treating emotional pain as a signal that old attitudes, beliefs and behaviors are no longer working.
In psychotherapy we can explore these beliefs together and decide whether they still serve you. To do this I believe in creating an atmosphere where emotional exploration is encouraged, and the isolation, depression, and anxiety that false beliefs engender, is reduced."

"A strong, positive therapeutic relationship is our starting point. Your wellness and growth in self-understanding and self-acceptance are our guiding priorities. I provide a safe, judgment-free environment in which we explore, together, how best to alleviate the suffering, distress, obstacles, and blockages that bring you to therapy. Beyond just reducing symptoms, we identify underlying issues/patterns to heal their emotional origins. Each session is responsive to your current needs. Sometimes this means focusing on deeper insights; at other times, we may work on more immediate strategies for coping with especially difficult or painful moments in your life."

"Emotional wellbeing is an integral part to leading a balanced and fulfilling life. When there is emotional dis-ease, there is pain and suffering. These are key indicators that there is a need to slow down, take stock and process how you are feeling and what you are experiencing . Therapy offers the space and time to slow down, reflect and gain clarity into our emotional experiences. Everyone has the inherent capacity to heal within themselves at any given moment. Love, patience, non-judgment and trust are the guideposts that allow and encourage healing to occur."

"Many people choose to begin therapy because they want to feel better, be more successful at work, or have better relationships. Psychotherapy can be helpful in addressing the emotional or sometimes even physical pain that can get in the way of such goals. The kind of psychotherapy that I practice involves careful listening and exploration of one's difficulties and how those difficulties tend to repeat or consistently present in a variety of contexts. I work with clients that appreciate that lasting change is indeed possible, and have the courage to forgo the false promise of a "quick fix"."
