Therapy is about being open and willing to look at your attitudes and behaviors from a professionals perspective and feedback .and accept new ideas and techniques which will help you to effect positive changes..Therapy requires and open mind and trust between a professional and a patient. I utilize various modalities of treatment and integrate whatever will work best for my patients.I am a strong believer in God and I utilize spiritual direction with other modalities without imposing any belief on anyone. .I care about people and their happiness and love working with people to effect better outcomes for them.
My patients see the growth and development of their own wishes and an improvement in personal and professional development. I am a therapist who is not distant but easily relatable to. I will make you smile, laugh, and gain introspection to save relationships or end ones that are unchangeable or abusive. If you connect with a good therapist then you win.
Life is hard and often very unfair . We all experience a multitude of experiences in enduring life that leave us broken and scarred. Sometimes we lose our way, our footing, our hope and our desire to go on. These are really hard things to bounce back from. Please dont feel hopeless but do reach out . Life is worth living, hang on.
