Family Needs: Family needs are Love, Sense of Belonging, Mutual respect, and Shared communication. The family wants harmonious relationships through mutual respect and communication. The lack of these qualities in the home have caused strife in the family, to the point where it becomes maladaptive. The family wants qualitative relationships with one another. They want their relationships to be positive, meaningful and purposeful. They want and need this because the family unit is interconnected. There is a symbiotic relationship amongst all family members.

Our lives are full of challenging and stressful circumstances, both in the world we live and within ourselves. The way we react, respond and relate to our inner and outer experiences determines how we feel and how we see ourselves.

With a kind and accepting presence, I offer a supportive and compassionate approach where we work collaboratively toward problem solving, insight, and personal growth.

I have a great deal of experience using evidence based practices and techniques geared towards improving the lives and happiness of clients. I emphasize helping clients be more aware of their common thought patterns and to modify their ways of thinking and emotions to better promote feelings of well being.
