I believe my role as a therapist is to empower you in uncovering a more fulfilling and enriched version of your life which to me means working in a collaborative manner with my clients and believing in the therapeutic relationship to be a space of healing.

The more you understand yourself and your patterns of behavior the better you can make positive change. Do you have marital issues that you are struggling with and need an honest objective opinion?
