"Many people consider psychotherapy when life hurts too much, but hesitate to take the first step. You might wonder, will this help? Can it get any better? Am I just strange? Often it's easier to move on from trauma or loss with the help of a compassionate, empathetic person. Therapy can help you develop a new and broader sense of yourself, your life, and your future. Therapy is a way to bring back your spirit and reorient yourself to the person you are meant to be."

"Are you frustrated, disengaged or anxious about life problems or school? I support healing by fostering healthy relationship. I found that clients that value a psychobiological approach to therapy tend to be drawn to me, especially if they are working through a transition such as relocation, divorce, life change, or relationship change. That approach includes physical, psychological, social and cultural domains. My greatest passion is to restore balance and bring relief. My work with clients revolves around supporting them to prioritize their needs, as well as to identify coping mechanisms and resources available to them. "
