Whether you're looking to set a new course in life, heal a wounded heart, break from unhealthy habits, I can teach you strategies and skills to become the person you want to be. Any positive change requires awareness, determination, and effort. At heartsandmindshealth, my goal is to improve your mental health and well-being. I take an insight-oriented, solution-focused approach to our work, After setting mutually-determined treatment objectives, I help individuals, couples, and groups achieve life goals, heal emotional wounds, become "unstuck", or break free from unhealthy patterns.
In practice for more than two decades, I have helped hundreds of children and adults improve their mental and emotional well-being. I have extensive experience on such issues as depression, anxiety, OCD, grief & loss, addiction, self-esteem, sexual minorities, spirituality, relationships, career stalemates, lack of fulfillment, and difficult transitions.
If you are in emotional pain, you can and deserve to feel better. I would consider it an honor and a privilege to help you on your journey to personal fulfillment. For more information or to schedule an appointment, visit www.hmhealth4u.com or call (703)622-2993.
