Welcome! You've made it this far on your mental health journey, and maybe you are wondering what the rest of the journey might look like. The truth is: therapy is different for everyone. Some of my previous clients have enjoyed our time together talking about the events of the past week or some changes they are contemplating. Other clients have used our time together to review and process deep emotional scars, with the intention of trying to create a meaningful way to move forward towards their goals. This journey is about you and where you would like to go.

Intercultural relationships often pop-up while traveling the globe and looking for excitement and romance. That is how my husband and I stumbled into our intercultural marriage some 37 years ago..... and stumble we definitely did. It is the differences that are so attractive that can become so problematic as time goes on. We had no common language between us and knew no one who believed our marriage stood a chance of survival. The children quickly came and reality hit hard! 20 yrs in MH and nothing in the field has felt so strenuous, exhilarating and worthwhile as couples therapy.

For over 15 years I have passionately worked with youth to overcome challenges, helping them undermine this idea that they are “less than.” For 8 years I worked with adjudicated youth at a juvenile detention camp where hope lingered. For 6 years I have worked for an emergency response team tailored to helping youth with an array of problems including suicidal ideation, homicidal ideation, and self-harm intentions. I have learned to meet folks where they are and slowly walk with them at a pace where they wish to be, a more viable and attainable life.

In other words, YOU ARE NOT YOUR BODY, YOU ARE NOT YOUR FEELINGS, YOU ARE NOT YOUR EMOTIONS! You are not what you feel nor think. The Real You Is Awesome & Genuinely Beautiful.
