I specialize in Depression, Anxiety, Relationship Issues, Stress, & Grief & Loss. My priorities are what troubles you most. Children over 14 & adults find my compassionate, warm, open, supportive & caring personality comforting while addressing past events that affect them today. I will help you understand yourself as we discover the triggers for unhealthy choices in your life. This will empower you with tools to make the changes necessary for a happier & more peaceful life. Your input is important too.
I'm a published author concerning Grief & Loss. My clinical perspectives are: Contemporary Object Relations, Relationship & Family Therapy, Psychodynamic, Self Hypnosis, Relaxation Therapy & Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I look forward to hearing from you & helping you lead the life you know is out there!
