If your life is not working as well as you believe it should and you are willing to investigate why, you are my ideal client. You may be angry, depressed, anxious, or using food to deal with emotional pain. You may be reeling from the effects of childhood issues, abuse, or PTSD, or in such turmoil that you don't know what is real anymore. You may just need a sounding board. You may be struggling with aspects of your identity, or looking for a way to heal from infidelity, trauma, grief, or loss. We will explore that together.

*PLEASE EMAIL TO SCHEDULE AN APPT NOW* Do you ever wonder: How can I achieve true Balance and Growth? Why am I so dissatisfied with my job? Are my own issues interfering with my marriage or my ability to parent my difficult teen? What is holding me back from moving forward with my life? Or-do you feel like your marriage is failing? Do you have difficulty communicating with your spouse? Have your own children become out of control? Is it time to look at a career change?

My goal is to care for the whole person by teaching the individual coping skills to handle stressors caused by medically, mentally, or spiritually challenged life. Are your health issues or that of a loved one weighing you down and interfering with your relationships? You can have PEACE of mind and JOY even amid these challenges.

I have worked with very diverse racial and ethnic populations, including first- or second-generation immigrants from Africa, Asia, Europe, South America, the Caribbean, and Canada. I have also worked extensively with many lesbian, gay, and bisexual clients.
