You can't take it anymore! You're tired of caring for others and neglecting yourself! Not feeling yourself anymore? Feeling down, stressed, or just overwhelmed?

Are you dealing with depression or anxiety/ marriage or family problems/ personality or character concerns? As a clinical social worker, I work with clients using proven techniques to address the self-defeating thoughts and behaviors of emotional and relational disorders. Dysfunctional habits begin to form at an early age and then persist into adulthood -- and personal growth can be hard when tackled alone. In talk therapy, we develop and implement a plan that promotes healthier ways of looking at ourselves and the world --- and consequently your daily life and your relationships improve.

Welcome! Are you currently feeling mentally overwhelmed by the day to day stresses of work and or family issues? Have you recently uncovered some faults and insecurities and are feeling stuck and stagnant? If this is you, I hope that this message speaks to you and that you know that it takes great courage to seek the help you need to get unstuck. You do not have to tackle this journey alone and I would be honored to partner with you on a path of healing your mind, body and soul.

I provide family interventions that establish emotional support, education, and guidance for a variety of concerns confronted by today's families. Examples of problems encountered by families include: family planning, adoption, parenting skills, blended family issues, step-parenting, health related problems, and problems of mental health. Common family goals are: to communicate more effectively and meaningfully, to guide the family through traumatic experiences, to resolve problems and conflicts, to create a more positive family environment.

I want you to feel good about yourself, your relationships and life overall. I want you to have positive self-worth and become good at being you. I care about your well-being and can help you be the best.I have experience in working with adolescents (13-18), adults and women issues. I also provide counseling to individuals who are struggling with family conflicts, anxiety, communication problems, multicultural issues, etc.

There are moments, whether short lived or life long, where just getting by is not enough for each of us to do our lives. Life can be difficult to navigate alone and it is my goal as a therapist to help each and everyone of my patients to explore their personal issue(s) and help you figure out how to navigate and live your best life.

Adults in midlife struggle to find their “happy place” in their personal and professional life! Do you struggle finding fulfillment? Are you feeling stressed, overwhelmed, depressed, or anxious?

Adults in midlife face chaos and crisis leaving them overwhelmed, sad, depressed, confused and challenged, with everyday life issues such as low self-esteem, aging, infidelity, stifled by decision making, strain on relationships, health issues, and the stress of disappointments and failures.

Coming to therapy is a courageous effort, especially if it goes against your cultural, familial or religious beliefs. My initial job in the therapeutic journey is to create a therapeutic alliance that affirms you reached out at the right time, hope is possible and you can exhale! This journey we take together won't always be easy, However, knowing you can speak with someone who isn't fixated on fitting you into a mold of some kind of diagnostic criteria; but is more interested in your personal goals - and path to wellness, makes it all worthwhile! My job is to help you become a better YOU..through the renewing of your mind!
