Everyone can benefit from having someone to talk to in a safe and comfortable environment. Difficulties with life are universal, whether one struggles with work, career direction, addiction, relationships, communication, sexuality, discovering and pursuing one's interests and passions, creating and following through with goals, weight and body issues, self esteem, anxiety or depression. Our friends and family may have good intentions (though not always); usually, they are biased or may want to shift the conversation to talk about themselves. Therapy is a special opportunity to focus on oneself and have the support, attention and incisiveness of a trained individual.

Chronic stress creates a strain that calls upon the system to devise coping strategies to survive. These strategies, especially the ones we adopt instinctively in childhood, are the source of behavior that creates problems in our lives. It can manifest as varying degrees of anxiety and depression; we get stuck - in relationships, careers, or our ambitions. We get stigmatized by what we feel which just adds to the bad feeling. I don’t like to label someone with a diagnosis. I prefer a holistic approach. Ultimately, the system wants to heal itself and it is my goal to help clients realize their innate perfection.

As a caring, compassionate, and non-judgmental therapist, my goal is to provide clients with a respectful, safe, and enlightening space to explore.
