I am a neuropsychologist, licensed psychologist, and Board Certified Behavior Analyst.

I offer a safe, fast, and effective combination of hypnotherapy and life coaching to help every client gain relief from mental and physical suffering. Clients are often unsure why they stay stuck in anxiety cycles in their lives, or can't stay on track with their health or their goals. Hypnotherapy is a direct way to uncover the subconscious thought patterns and solve the problem at the source. Inner Freedom Therapy can be used in conjunction with traditional therapy. It works well as a turbo booster to more traditional therapy or as a stand-alone resolution to emotional suffering around life, body, and/or health.

One of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. Part of our story is suffering. Emotional suffering may include anxiety , depression, grief, conflicts in relationships and trauma. For most of us, suffering is more than just one thing.

The goal is to increase understanding of the self which leads to feelings of empowerment, courage, self-determination, hope, meaningfulness and freedom.

Is it time to invest in yourself and work towards change? There is so much pressure to be strong and handle everything on your own that we forget that we all need support at times.

I am licensed counselor with over 15 years of experience specializing in helping people cope with stress, anxiety , past emotional experiences and life transitions. Asking for help in processing through these challenges shows the strength and courage needed to make real and meaningful changes.

My goal in offering counseling services is to support clients in creating a more empowered life for themselves and their loved ones. My approach to helping is providing you a safe place to discuss issues affecting your relationships, work, and emotional well-being. Often times we are unaware of how much responsibility and commitments we carry that we do not have time to take care of ourselves until we are sick, resentful or overwhelmed, feeling powerless. I am a direct, compassionate and supportive listener. My goal is to assist you in identifying areas to relieve pressure or problems in your life.

Are you a people pleaser? Would you describe yourself as having characteristics of a "Type A" personality? Do you tend to put the needs of others before yourself?

If you are ready to let go of self-doubt, reclaim your ability to say "no", learn how to be assertive and feel more confident in your everyday life, then I am here to help.
