Are you ready to stop being controlled by your fears and start living confidently? Then I am here to empower you through therapy. I take the proven approach of mindfulness (focusing fully on the present moment rather than stressing about the future or the past) when combating anxiety and teach self-defense skills to empower. This helps clients sustain lasting relief from anxiety symptoms, experience increased inner stillness and develop greater confidence to face scary situations. It's a mental, emotional and spiritual approach to empowerment.

Do you need a safe space right now to talk about your thoughts and feeling of uncertainty?

My approach is solution focused with unconditional positive regard. I work in a non-judgmental space to help guide you down a purposeful life, living up to your potential.

You have the diagnosis of Autism, now what? Getting the diagnosis can be emotional. Trying to figure out how to help your child and provide them with the tools they need to be successful can be draining. I assist parents of children with Autism and adults with Autism in getting financial resources, therapies, doctors, alternative medicine, holistic providers, and more, as well as helping parents who are dealing with difficult behaviors. No two children with Autism are the same and therefore no two treatment approaches are the same. **ALL SESSIONS ARE DONE THROUGH HOME VISITS OR TELEHEALTH

My goal is to provide a relaxed environment where you feel free and supported to explore your thoughts and feelings. I work to help you recognize your true emotions that may be hiding behind initial reactions of defensiveness or anger.

Identification of these patterns provides the opportunity to change them and ultimately find more joy in experiences, intimacy in relationships, and the ability to communicate effectively.

I've been doing this work for 43 years now, and still love it. Also, I'm used to being successful at what I do. The challenge for me is people's "inside" language - what takes place beneath awareness. This is like the language of poetry and myth. I then translate between the worlds of "problem reality" and the deeper emergent Self - which is why I find this work rewarding. In working with couples I seek to translate the language (hopes and dreams) of each to that richer place between and behind - where hope becomes real. Go see my website.
