"Relax as it is."-Pema Chodron. It's a beautifully simple phrase yet it requires two powerful features: letting go and acceptance. Our life shapes the stories we tell ourselves and so often these stories foster feelings of anxiety, sadness, frustration, anger and blame (of ourselves and of those close to us). The changes that life always bestow on us are often unwelcome triggers causing us to notice how these ways of thinking can negatively impact our overall well-being. By taking the opportunity to look at ourselves in an honest and gentle way we create new pathways to accept and let go.

As a marriage and family therapist providing care to individuals, couples and families, I utilize a systems approach to improve understanding of self, others, and the issues you are struggling with to facilitate more effective problem-solving. Together, we explore the systems in which you function - family, relationships, school/work, and the larger community - to identify opportunities for change that promote individual and relational well-being. Systemic/relational therapies promote problem-solving and healing by supporting communication and flexibility, building empathy, promoting connection and building healthier relationships.

I believe that we all have the innate power to change our own lives. To do this, we need to understand, accept and make peace with our past, and realize that it does not control us. We live right now. Regardless of what has come before, we have choices now, and the choices we make today create who we become tomorrow.
