"ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS! My counseling philosophy is rooted in the concept of establishing a safe space that is non-judgmental, where clients can heal and grow at their own pace. I work with each client to build a strong therapeutic alliance utilizing empathetic dialogue, to develop a unique therapeutic plan that is shaped by each client's own personal needs and goals. Within this framework and within an environment of compassion and tolerance, I make sure that my clients feel heard and respected, and that we act as joint participants in their therapeutic journey."

"My staff and I have expertise in depression, chronic thought and mood disorders and relationship issues; regardless of how that relationship is defined. Dysfunctional thoughts and emotions destroy us and those around us. Let us help you, through new thoughts and ideas, finally move towards a life that works for you rather than against you. Our practice is inspiring, motivational and directive when needed. We believe that we are all one and share in common the challenges of living life on life's terms; while still understanding that each of us brings our unique expression of these challenges into the session."

My goal in therapy is to facilitate healing for individuals by looking at each person through a holistic, culturally sensitive, and strength-based lens. That means that therapy will be tailored to your specific needs and goals. "

"I view each of my therapeutic relationships as an opportunity to be a strength and an ally in another individual's journey.

My relationship with clients helps them feel heard, understood, and brings another perspective to life events. Working together, we create and utilize skills in order to live a better and happier life."

"I see my role as a steadfast guide in helping my patients to deepen their connections with others and live life more fully. Oftentimes, we are not fully aware of the habits of thinking, feeling, and acting that shape our daily internal and interpersonal struggles. To live life in a more attentive and skillful way, it helps to discover the emotional and relational habits we live by, where they came from, and what keeps them going in the here and now. Habits that were once useful may now limit our ability to connect with others and find joy in living."
