A shift in your emotions and beliefs can shift your whole life. Feelings, such as depression, despair, anxiety and fear take you out of alignment with functional living and with creating what you want in your life. Our body is in part the product of our habits, beliefs, thoughts and feelings. If you put enough stress on yourself you will create disease. Disease can't live in a body/mind that is present and healthy emotionally. I support you to create body/mind/spirit health on a deep cellular level making the difference, between healing or not healing.

" I am a non-judgmental, open-minded therapist who believes that each client is an individual who deserves respect and unconditional regard for their life experiences. I engage in utilization of client centered therapy that allows the client to direct and feel more involved in the therapeutic process. This allows me to connect with the client and, together, develop a treatment plan that will help them to foster the skills that they feel they need to achieve the goals that they have set forth."

I am a highly experienced and empathetic therapist that offers a holistic therapeutic approach in a straightforward, compassionate, non-judgmental and supportive environment. My approach integrates the mind, body and spirit. I work collaboratively with individuals to discard their unconscious, inauthentic self and move to a place of empowerment and balance. I focus on the developmental effects that generational trauma, cultural/systemic oppression and environmental interactions have on the overall emotional well-being of children and families, adolescents, and adults.

Thinking and feeling in ways that allow you to engage your daily life, others, and your personal goals with energy, creativity, and effectiveness is the thrust of my approach and practice. Identifying patterns that restrict cognitive and behavioral functioning, preventing understanding and integration of personal and interpersonal dynamics is a key focus. Increasing self awareness and understanding through enhancing mindfulness, expanding thinking about self and others, and developing behavior patterns that mobilize personal strengths, assets, and motivation is the goal of the work.

As a therapist my first goal is setting the stage by introducing myself as a therapist, who is here to supply support and resources for clients seeking therapy and life coaching changes. My voice tone and smile, along with twenty-seven plus years of experience, is everything and an immensely powerful tool when engaging with my clients. I must assure the client is aware, I am present, implementing my counseling skills of validating and confirming clients' purpose for counseling, with a non-judgmental clinical counseling approach. Please empower yourself to the desired steps toward positive, healthy, mind, body, and soul counseling.

Are you a woman who has ever asked herself "Why am I like this?" Because your're feeling caught in a loop of overthinking, people-pleasing, and striving for unreachable perfection? Exhausted by trying to be everything to everyone and getting caught in the spiral of worries? Burdened by unhealed wounds, strained relationships, or that nagging feeling of being stuck and unfulfilled? Tired of just treating symptoms rather than healing the root causes of your 'stuckness?' Craving a life ignited with purpose, a life where you're thriving, not just surviving, leaving behind the impulse to compare it to everyone else's 'highlight reel'?
