It's my goal to help you find happiness again. I want to help you navigate and improve the difficulties and challenges you might be facing in your personal life and in your relationships. I work with a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues to help people achieve their personal goals such as balance, peace of mind and happiness. My approach, as an integrative, heart centered therapist, draws from a diverse range of traditional and non-traditional tools and techniques. This allows us to tailor a specialized plan that meets your individual needs to work toward achieving results.
With empathy, support and compassion, we will work to identify and resolve underlying patterns and beliefs that are preventing you from realizing your true potential. Through the process, we will identify real, practical tools and strategies to help you decrease distress and increase balance, happiness and peace of mind.
To simplify things, my clients have access to a secure portal which streamlines scheduling, communication, initial paperwork and automates payment. To accomodate your schedule, I offer appointments on the evenings and weekends. Visit my website to learn more or contact me for a free 15 minute phone consultation.
