Our experience of life may lead us to feel Distressed. Disappointed. Discouraged. Overwhelmed. Anxious. Burned out. Angry. Our friends and family may have given us their perspective, and we just need another impartial, objective point of view.

My goal is to help individuals to get through their emotional problems and traumatic experiences and to heal the pain they feel. I believe in a close connection of body, mind and spirit and think that counseling can very well be approached from this perspective. I have experience with individuals from many different cultures, mentalities, beliefs, religions, and behaviors. I want to help clients heal and become whole again. I want to help them prosper, move forward in life and get what they deserve.

I provide person-centered, psychodynamic counseling services by partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal potential. Therapy provides support to enhance the skills, resources, and creativity that clients already have in order to improve the quality of their lives through individual, couples, and family work. I prefer working with adult individuals suffering from existential crises who require identity development work through continual psychotherapeutic treatment. I believe in holding client's accountable for their actions and trusting them to grow and develop.

Who needs counseling? Why do people generally seek counseling? Counseling should not be a last resort. Many people look to counseling as a means to develop a plan for tackling life's obstacles or gain perspective - be it life pressures, trouble with romantic , parent-child, or family relationships, parenting, job related stress, or transistion. Counseling can provide a safe place to emotionally and relationally explore solutions that are right for you. Not one person's path is the same.

I believe that all people have the capacity to grow and change and that counseling can make profound and lasting changes in your life.
