Ever since I was an adolescent , I knew that one of my life purposes & passion was to do something in the psychological realm. Making a positive impact in someone's life & helping them flourish into their best self is one of the most rewarding feelings. My own life path has been filled with challenges that I had to overcome from a young age & on my path of self healing, I realized that the therapeutic world was missing so much of what I needed & only a rare few "understood me." That is when I made the promise to myself to give to others what I witnessed was missing & to be open to sharing my own insight, education and research.

Life is a balance of holding on and letting go. We all experience times in our lives when we feel a bit out of balance.
