Life struggles may sometimes prevent us from fully being our true selves, interfering with the hopes, dreams and wishes we have for our lives.

It is my sincerest desire to carry it with you offering a process of emotional healing, exploration and self-discovery. As we journey towards a restored sense of balance and harmony, I encourage you through your process until you feel secure, connected and can experience peace.

I am passionate about helping individuals find the strength and insight they need to enjoy life. I specialize in helping individuals find a holistic balance between spirit, soul, and body.

My broad scope of experiences and holistic perspective enables me to encourage individuals, couples, marriages, families, and groups of different cultures to achieve meaningful outcomes.

Change is inevitable in today's world, but what happens when we get stuck? Whether it is unhelpful cycles of communication/interaction with others, difficult relationships, challenging experiences, life transitions, or painful experiences from our family of origin, sometimes knowing how or where to begin can feel overwhelming. Or maybe it seems not worthy of bringing up, feeling unheard or having shame about communicating your wants and needs? Or maybe you just want more satisfaction in your life and relationships. Does this sound familiar? Are you looking for change?

Choosing to begin therapy is an excellent first step in navigating life's struggles and reaching your full potential. I approach the therapeutic process as a journey we will take together.

Much of my experience has included working in a hospital setting on the inpatient units providing therapy for children, adolescents and adults.

My ideal patient does not exist, I truly believe anyone willing to show up to do the work, trust themselves, and build on every session is ideal because that is the most important part of the therapy process. I also believe that one of the foundational pieces of therapy is transparency. I try to remember everyone is on a different path, and their own pace concerning how they choose to express themselves. I'm known for my kindness, relatability, and willingness to adapt to my patient's needs as necessary. I take great pride in creating a safe space where patients can feel comfortable and vulnerable when working with me.

One of the biggest obstacles to personal, emotional, mental and social well-being is holding on to the past. Letting go of the past can empower you to obtain happiness, and contentment in all walks of life. It is very important, yet difficult, to be in the present. Letting go and starting anew will increase your sense of resilience and help you tackle concerns confidentially and bravely without feeling helpless, unduly stressed or overwhelmed. Confidence paired with realistic goals and plans can lead to peace versus anxiety and fear. Properly managed stress can positively affect your physical, mental, and emotional health.

If you are wondering what to do now that SHIfT has happened, (that's my acronym for life has changed (shifted) and you don't know what to do), if you're feeling scared and anxious, or so down in the dumps thinking you'll never feel joy again, let's talk. I know that sometimes we all need help to cope. I have helped clients feel better, sometimes as quickly as three sessions, empowering them to help themselves. Clients say that what they appreciate most about working with me is my compassion, understanding, and ability to truly listen.

I AM more than enough. I AM worthy of love and appreciation. I AM at peace with my past. I AM confident of my ability to attract abundance in my life daily.

We are all facing complex issues each day. Which can leave us feeling hopeless or discouraged. But taking the steps to seek help for yourself or your child doesn’t equal failure. It means you’ve recognized the hurt. The focus is now on solutions.

Do you find yourself questioning your worth, no matter what you do? You're someone who likes to live life but still finds yourself questioning self, feeling untrusting, confused, and disconnected from who you really are. You feel like you deserve more and then questioning yourself if you deserve more. Questioning leaves you feeling "stuck", unmotivated, and sometimes "lazy". You're ready to make a change. You're ready to "Start Living Life". You're ready to drop the "survival cape". Most of all, you're ready to start focusing on you and not the questions. I want to help you get there.

Your thoughts are what guide your decisions. Perhaps the strength you used to have has weaken, causing you to doubt or question your ability and/or who you are. Start today, seek a new life for yourself. Imagine what your future can look like. See that together we can create change and healing, allowing you to move beyond pain, sadness, anxiety, and confusion. Accurate assessment and therapeutic approaches, including understanding and professional guidance will help you experience daily peace, love, laughter and happiness. I am fully convinced from a high success rate among those who have sought and received therapeutic counseling and moved forward, experiencing a healthy productive life that you will also.
