"Children do not come with a manual on how to raise them. Parenting, a full time job, becomes painfully difficult when a child or teen struggles with such things as low self esteem, acting out, anxiety, academics, and following rules. No one wishes for struggles or bad feelings. Individuals can overcome their obstacles, feel better, and enjoy life more fully. As a therapist I help individuals and families get back on track by defining their goals, harnessing their strengths and exploring strategies to improve their daily lives. I believe there are many paths to wellness: emotional, physical, cognitive, spiritual and social."

"My philosophy to treatment is to "test first so there are no questions later!" This means the first step is to identify all the major factors contributing to your problem, as well as any smaller problems that could be having an impact. Often, what seems to be one problem is really something else entirely. This diagnostic clarity is accomplished by administering a battery of tests personalized to your unique presentation. By identifying specific areas in need of intervention that may otherwise not have been considered, the rate of recovery increases and much more targeted treatments can be implemented."

"With more than 30 years of studying human nature and sitting with people in psychotherapy, I realize that what people want is to live authentically, lovingly, happily, and successfully. The problem is that we have so many beliefs about life, relationships, and work that don't create the outcomes we want. Because these beliefs and practices are so widely held, we do not recognize that there are tremendously more effective ways to live. The people I work with in therapy come to realize and utilize ways of relating, thinking, and working that result in much happier effective lives."

"I believe that every individual can build skills, create opportunities, and improve his/her quality of life. Nobody gets through life alone and support, compassion, and openness is essential to empowering individuals into being successful within their own life journey.
