No matter what has brought you to therapy, your experience is valid. I believe that even the most unlikeable, confusing, extreme parts of you have a wisdom to be understood, a protectiveness to be thanked, and a vulnerability to be seen and heard.

My ultimate goal is for clients to uncover their essential self—to rediscover their own innate wisdom and strength that can face whatever life brings. We will work together to create a life where you feel more aware and in charge of your journey.

SUCCESS IS WITHIN REACH" I am gentle yet firmly persistent in helping clients find direction, making choices of right and wrong and uncovering their ability to tell reality from distortion and delusion. My clients find the counseling experience positive, insightful and intellectual which opens the doors of lasting happiness and sense of reality for them. The introspection, self examination and self actualization greatly increases their sensitivity and attitude about what is really important in human experience and opens the doors of happiness and sense of reality." My counseling approach gives clients insight to follow for greater understanding and self actualization.
