With over 20 years of clinical experience in counseling & psychotherapy , I will assist you in a collaborative and goal-oriented treatment experience. My goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we cannot change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
The cornerstone of my practice is helping individuals develop a greater capacity for closeness, intimacy, compassion, and connectedness. Therapy is right for anyone who is interested in getting the most out of their life by taking responsibility, creating greater self-awareness, and working towards change in their lives.
Some benefits of psychotherapy include: Development of new skills for handling stress and/anxiety, Modification of unhealthy cognitive/behavioral patterns, Increasing confidence, Improving communication and intimacy in marriage, Development of anger management strategies, Overcoming depression, Navigating life's obstacles more effectively, and Enhancing the overall quality of your life.
