"Above anything else, my main passion is to teach others how to develop a deep and profound sense of acceptance. Acceptance not only of ourselves, but of everything we experience. Self-love, compassion and forgiveness all begin to follow as we begin to embrace life and not shield ourselves from it. One of the easiest ways to do this is to learn how to live in this NOW moment. Entering deep and profound states of quiet mind brings a level of happiness and peace beyond description. Learning how to live this way in daily life is what I teach."

"Do you or your child often feel overwhelmed or out of control? Have you been labeled as “sensitive” and feel exhausted by the world around you? Does trying to push through only exhaust you more and make you feel defeated? The feeling of not being good enough can be debilitating. The stress and worry can leave you feeling as if you are constantly running on empty which only increases the stress and anxiety. You long to take back control of your life and bask in the joy of living in a way that is uniquely you without shame, guilt, or anxiety. It’s time you embrace your strengths and create a life that works for you. "

"At all stages of life people go through hard times - in relationships with others and within ourselves. You are the best expert in your own life experience and possess the capacity to overcome the adversity in your life. I generate a protected space for you to better understand your personal story and manage problems that block the flow of your innate happiness. I help you expand your ability to take care of yourself even when life sends unbearable challenges. I honor all aspects of your ethnicity, sexuality, gender, spirituality, physical and mental abilities, age, socioeconomic class, and native language."

"I believe that the foundation upon which an individual's emotional, psychological, and physical health may thrive is determined by the strength of that individual's relationship with "self". My treatment style is holistic and integrated, its core components being that of empathy, authenticity, and collaboration. My areas of practice include relational issues experienced throughout the lifespan, trauma, moral injury, sexual/gender issues, sexual addiction, and issues confronting those involved with a family member suffering from any type of addiction. I provide services for those within the military culture and the LGBTQI community, for caretakers experiencing compassion fatigue, and for individuals coping with terminal illness."

"I enjoy working with those who are ready for change and growth.

I work with a wide variety of adult clients and treat various issues including; Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, Abuse, Relationships, Romance, Communication, Sexual Issues, Sexual Orientation, LGBTQ issues, Spirituality, Religion, Eating Disorders, Body Image, Fitness and Nutrition, Nutritional Issues Addictions, Althete Motivation, Sports Psychology, Career and more."

"After more than 35 years of clinical practice, I am now working with individuals and couples exploring emotional issues as a pathway to understanding and living fuller lives. We often view our difficulties as something being wrong with us, as opposed to an invitation to discovery."

"I work with individuals, families and couples to better understand the difference they can make in their own lives. Understanding feelings is key to making changes in your personal, social and work lives. Counseling can help you regain control of your life by identifying effective problem solving skills, setting realistic expectations and taking responsibility for your behavior. You can change how you feel."

"Have you ever found yourself thinking that things will never change, feeling stuck, frustrated, or hopeless? We all do our best managing the difficulties of life, oftentimes not noticing that pressure is increasing until we find ourselves compromised and struggling with depression, anxiety, or starting to use alcohol or drugs more often than we used to. It is not always the current challenge that is holding us back, but the back log of unresolved issues, such as; loss, family conflict, or a traumatic event. We all need support at times to get back on track and to live our best lives. "
