My ideal patient is one who is eager to communicate. A patient who believes that change is possible and wants to make mistakes. My patient is one who believes that mistakes create success. My patient's goals are manageable, sustainable, and focused. I like a patient who recognizes therapy as a process that takes time. Change takes patience, consistency, and experience.

Life can be challenging; getting help doesn't have to be. Balancing family, work/school, and personal relationships can be a daily struggle.

I believe that each one of us holds the answers to our own questions and we just need a quiet, safe environment to access that part of us. I am honored to be that person for my clients.
