"Sometimes life brings many unexpected challenges and finding the right person to help you is key. As your therapist, I will help you find your way through your immediate problems, in a way that promotes progress toward your long-term goals. For many people this includes overcoming fears or insecurities, get 'unstuck' from negative patterns and getting more in touch with who you really are and caring for yourself. This starts with building a trusting relationship that is respectful, open minded, and culturally sensitive where you feel empowered to achieve your life goals."

"Psychotherapy is one instrument of change for feeling better. For example, earlier psychic injuries may alert us when faced with challenges making us anxious, depressed, endure sleep problems or feel out of balance some way. Long term recovery from addiction, grieving and loss, chronic illness or pain may call for deeper work. Many stress points show up in relationships, at work or in how we feel. Life transitions (starting or ending a career, big changes in relationships/family, starting a young family or retirement ) are important passages in our lives and therapy can be a great guide."
