"It's never to late to have a happy childhood" This quote embodies the core belief and hope that I bring into my practice. Most people bring wounds from childhood into their adulthood. These wounds show up in their lives as depression, anxiety, low-self-esteem and unhealthy relationships.

As this healing occurs, we can explore ways to live life more fully and joyfully and to thrive rather than just survive.
