I am a counselor specializing in working with the LGBT community. Are you living in the present moment or always worried about the future or dwelling in the past? Are you a harsh self critic? I choose to see myself as a work in progress that I try not to judge, but to treat with compassionate acceptance. Accepting oneself for who one is...in this present moment, is the key to emotional balance and a fulfilling life. Still, we can strive for our greatest potential by recognizing negative patterns in our lives and seeking change and healthy balance. For more details please visit NowTherapy dot com
I offer counseling, psychotherapy and hypnotherapy that focus on providing you with tools to better cope with stress, and make positive changes. My approach assumes that you are motivated for change and will agree to participate in your treatment. Together we will break through any fears you are having of connection, intimacy or a successful life.
I have experienced depression and anxiety in my life, and I know the devastating effects they can have on your relationships with yourself and others. I practice a holistic approach to therapy where your whole being is considered. I use relaxation, guided imagery and mindfulness to enhance connection, intimacy, and help with achieving your best self.
