My work is guided by a belief that clients need to feel safe enough to explore why they "feel" the way they do and to help them develop a positive self-regard. As they say, "We can't heal what we can't see." My role in the context of the therapeutic relationship is to help clients "see".

The road to finding peace of mind and a clear vision for one's life can be difficult to navigate. Acknowledging that you desire change is often the first step towards clarity. Many then find that they need further guidance, which is what has likely brought you here. I believe it is important for my clients to recognize and then use their strengths, past successes, supportive relationships (including the therapeutic one) and own hopes to obtain whatever goal they set forth. Moving forward I hope to build a strong and supportive therapeutic relationship which we can use toward a self-fulfilling and clear future.
