Staying centered while balancing the many demands and expectations that our lives place on us may become overwhelming at times. Finding our balance between meeting those demands and creating mind space to explore, grow, replenish, and assert ourselves authentically can be challenging. These imbalances can compromise our psychological and emotional well-being while having a negative impact on our physical and spiritual health. They can also affect our relationships with others, personally and professionally, by influencing the way we perceive our circumstances, communicate with others, and assert our needs.
My focus includes working with individuals using evidence-based therapeutic interventions, helping to improve self-awareness and identify challenging areas in your life. In understanding the interplay between environmental influences, self-perceptions, and personal experiences you may more successfully facilitate healing, change, and personal growth.
Holding degrees in psychology and counseling, I work with individuals, couples and groups. My passion is helping individuals discover and utilize their autonomy, improve life satisfaction, and build healthier connections and relationships. I enjoy creative writing, illustrating, traveling, and spending time with family and friends.
