Current openings for new clients! Are you experiencing distressing thoughts that scare you? Do you feel compelled to complete certain tasks (even mentally) due to your thoughts?

Our thoughts, emotions and actions are all connected. During periods of high stress, negative thoughts and overwhelming emotion can cause dysfunction in our daily lives.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative partnership between the client and therapist.

Meeting with clients for years, I recognize that many find themselves trapped with shame. Shame causes intense emotional distresses such as depression and anxiety. Likewise, personal life struggles can also become entangled in it. Even talking to a therapist requires a lot of courage because of shame. When we feel stuck, self-criticism and self-doubt compound this feeling of inability. Therapy is not an easy process, and dealing with the discomfort will bring about self-validation and self-respect because of the limitations that shame brings us.

I emphasize insight, self-awareness, and empowerment to help you grow, learn about the meaning behind your symptoms, and lead a more gratifying life.
