Life is hard. Sometimes it feels like you are the only one in possession of this truth. We are fellow travelers. Growing through the difficulties and challenges of life can sometimes leave us feeling alone, unseen and unloved. You sometimes begin to question yourself and wonder if you are your illness, your disease, your circumstance, your trauma. You are not! In my practice, I offer compassion and the reassurance that life is worth living even at the darkest times. I offer my expertise and guidance in developing effective coping skills in solving life's challenges, healing old wounds and recovering broken relationships.
My passion for helping individuals and families overcome life's challenges is deepened by my theoretical training in various therapeutic modalities that fit each individual and family. l have the experience and training in helping individuals through the devastating impact of substance abuse, depression, anxiety and trauma.
If you can go back to one moment in your life , what would it be? A common answer to that question is often found BEFORE our experience of despair, loss or disillusionment. Do not give up! The best moments in our lives may be THROUGH the pain that confronts us. Start NOW and begin living your best life.
