At Elite Behavioral Therapy, I believe you are the author of your own experience and the expert on your own life. But sometimes even experts need advice. Perhaps you have wondered why there isn’t a how-to manual for your own life. Or thought that others seem to know the secret ingredient to the recipe for a successful relationship. There is no magical formula for happiness. But I can be your guide, and help you dispel the myths and negative stories that you have told yourself that's getting in the way of your happiness. Worries, stresses, joy, and hopes? I can help you better manage the conflicts everyone struggles.
As a therapist, I believe in a holistic approach to help my clients achieve a better work-life balance, foster a more positive perspective, and to gain a greater sense of self-awareness. I specializing in issues spanning from family disruption, nearing divorce, sleep concerns, self-esteem, anger, and simply feeling“stuck” due to loss, anxiety and depression.
Seeking professional counseling is not a sign of weakness. Rather, it is evidence of honesty about the self and affirmation of one’s determination to heal. I strive to ease the process to create an environment sensitive to multicultural concerns in which my clients can process situations and thoughts in a non-judgmental, competent and sensitive space.
