Either if you are looking for individual, couples, or family therapy, my sessions offer a safe and compassionate place to explore the root causes of the struggles that keep getting in the way of your life goals and a joyful existence. I am a firm believer that healing our inner child leads to self-compassion and compassion to others, healing one relationship at a time. Therefore, sessions offer an opportunity to explore traumatic events and maladaptive patterns that create anxiety, depression, codependency, or addiction, among others. These reflections will lead to understanding, acceptance, and healing.

I work with with couples, families and individuals to fully realize their potentials and help them have the experiences they want in their lives and relationships. This can prove especially difficult when there are so many factors affecting one's well-being; a boss at work that doesn't respect you, a spouse that doesn't understand you, a friend that doesn't contact you. I try to explore all of these influences and help you find the place where you want to be in.

Life is complicated and it often leaves us feeling out of control. This feeling of being powerless can lead to suffering, and forces us to make changes in order to go on. That's what I do; I help people with making changes, whether they are trying to change their thoughts, feelings or behavior. I utilize an integrative approach to therapy focused on the personal needs and strengths of my clients. The work is rooted in building a strong relationship based on trust, understanding, and respect, that challenges individuals to learn about themselves, and to use that knowledge to implement meaningful changes in their lives.
