We all have needs and desires that lay dormant because of relational issues, trauma, mood distortion or societal pressures. Our needs get pushed to the side due to personal obligations that can lead to a state of unfulfillment and at times anger. Is that you? Are you living in a state of resentment because of an unfulfilled purpose, a deferred dream or a lost opportunity? Taking the journey of introspection could lead to the acknowledgement of mental disorders or other underlying factors that may contribute to dissatisfaction. Come to a safe place where those issues can be resolved and ultimately lead to wholeness.

I believe in the whole person. I believe that we are a product of not only our family values, but our environment, interpersonal relationships, goals, ambitions and ultimately our overall perspective of life.

Recognizing triggers, and utilizing appropriate coping alternatives can lead to not only holistic wellness, but valid and reliable strategies in the maintenance of mental health.
