Let's face it. Life is a juggling act between home, work, school, friends and family. Our bodies are bioenergetic systems geared for balance. When things go well, our energy flows and we feel good. When life happens and stress occurs, we can feel anxiety, depression and physical pain. We reach outside ourselves for relief when going inside is the answer. If you are ready for change and are committed to making that happen, please make an appointment today. My approach is wholistic and I use Energy Psychology (Tapping), Zen Buddhism and Mindfulness to achieve a client's goals.

People often seek out therapy when they are in relief of mental and emotional pain. I believe much of this pain is rooted in attachment failures in childhood which then branch out into how you see yourself, relate to others, etc. Ways you may have managed this pain no longer seem to be working. This crisis of sorts is an opportunity for deeper understanding, acceptance and transformation. Therapy can be a vehicle for achieving this. My areas of focus are: mood disorders, trauma, self-esteem, relational difficulties and life transitions. I tend to work well with clients who are open, curious and motivated for change.

As someone who was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, I know what it’s like to go through life feeling I'm not quite good enough. I've struggled with things that seemed so easy for others – staying focused, not procrastinating, being organized, etc. Throughout my life I internalized these struggles as personal failings. I thought I just needed to try harder or be more disciplined.
It wasn’t until my diagnosis that I began to understand how ADHD actually works—and how much compassion I truly needed, not criticism. Things started to change once I faced myself with kindness.
