I am dedicated to helping clients improve their lives and achieve self-transformation. This includes learning to cope, manage, overcome and transcend mental health issues. Building mindfulness and emotional awareness is key to understanding how our belief systems and emotions drive our decisions/behaviors. Our sessions will be fully engaged in building healthier thoughts, feelings, emotions, beliefs, values, perceptions, assumptions so that we can reshape our life narrative and see reality differently. Each individual is capable of healing psychological wounds, finding peace and balance, while being centered and present.
