Counseling is a space where you can explore, process, heal and grow. By being vulnerable we can allow ourselves the space to reflect on who we are now and where we have come from. I believe that we deserve a space where we can feel safe, comfortable and free from judgement. In this space, we can take out some of the boxes that are stored away and discover how we can let go of what no longer serves us while creating new ways of being and relating to ourselves, others, and the world around us .

Do you have a child or teenager that you are worried about? Have they exhibited behaviors that are getting them into trouble?

As a registered play therapist, I work within the context of family therapy to provide a safe space for children to address their deep emotions while providing support and education to parents so they can continue the healing process at home.

I believe that everyone should be in therapy. Yes, Everyone. We all have issues we're working through to become our fullest selves.

I believe that everyone has the potential to live a fuller, happier and more enriching life. Therapy is an excellent way to achieve the life you want to live and be the best you. Therapy provides an opportunity for you to look at what you are doing, thinking and feeling on a daily basis and what is or is not working well in your life. This information will forge a path that will empower you to feel more confident in both personal and work relationships. The goal is to help you feel less anxious, depressed, angry, helpless or whatever symptom is bringing you into therapy. I also offer video therapy or tele-therapy at the present time
