"Change is not about moving forward, it is letting go of where you are". I really value this quote and refer to it daily; not only in my life but also when helping with the lives of others. I aim to offer supports and guidance to individuals, couples and families seeking assistance in making a change for the better. My goal is to collaborate with the individual, couple and or family to build rapport, gain trust and meet the individual(s) where he or she is at in their lives in order to build resistance and move towards the solution to the presented issue(s).

The Power of Choice... to make our lives into what we want them to be... an awesome privilege and responsibility. Sometimes we need assistance and a fresh perspective to help us get there.

It is also important to have an atmosphere of accountability to increase the possibility of positive change.

If you're considering starting therapy, you are suffering in some way. That's what gets us here. You may find yourself worried, feeling down, having problems in your relationships....things can feel blocked. We all go through these times in our lives. Working together, we can find the opportunity for growth in these difficulties, and the way forward. Your life can come more into focus, you can realize what you really want, and go after it. You didn't choose these difficulties, or the extraordinary times we live in, but within the difficulties is a call to your future.

Seeking out psychotherapy is an investment in yourself so that you can reach your dreams and overcome emotional hurdles like depression, anxiety, trauma, loss, and addictions. I have experience helping hundreds of people jump over these types of hurdles and get more of what they want from life. In addition to traditional psychotherapy, I offer qEEG, which helps to diagnose and predict cognitive issues based on neurologically distinct brain activity, as well as Neurofeedback to successfully target those areas in the brain identified by the qEEG as dysregulated, resulting in reduction of symptoms and increase in optimal functioning.

My "ideal" client is an individual, couple or family who needs changes in their lives. Anyone with signs of distress, anxiety, anger issues or substance abuse may benefit from psychotherapy. Major life events which bring about change in a person's life are reasons people seek therapy. You do not need to be married to see a marriage and family therapist. I treat anyone of any age or sexual orientation who is motivated to make meaningful changes in their lives.

I believe in a client centered approach in a supportive environment.

I am passionate about building strong connections and repairing damaged relationships. It is normal to struggle when our problems seem bigger than we can handle. My role as a therapist is to walk with you on your journey, listen, help explore your feelings and identify solutions to your life challenges. I offer a non-judgmental and empathetic environment that advocates growth and healing. I believe a therapeutic environment should be authentic, emotionally safe, and at the same time challenging with a balance between hard work and fun.
