Although at times it seems like a daunting task, I believe that every individual has the potential to lead a happy and fulfilling life. Anyone who is courageous enough to begin therapy has taken the first step towards trying to achieve this. It is my belief that creating a therapeutic alliance based on emotional support and acceptance will lead you towards personal fulfillment. In a safe and supportive environment we can work together to overcome obstacles that are standing in the way of you achieving personal fulfillment.
With more than 30 years of working with adolescents and young adults my speciality is helping identify and understand repetitive self defeating patterns of thought and behavior. With self-acceptance and understanding, you can learn new and healthier approaches to cope with the difficulties and struggles of life.
I believe that the relationship that is created by talking and really being heard by another human being is a life changing experience.
