Life is full of “shoulds.” Family, friends, and society often have a very clear idea of the path we’re supposed to be on, but we believe that peace and empowerment lie in finding your own path- worrying less about the expectations of others and more about what you want your life to look like. Taking an alternative path or changing route along the way is difficult. Therapy can help as you strive to be true to yourself on the journey. We offer a space where individuals learn to utilize their personal strengths to live their most meaningful lives, develop fulfilling relationships, and find true liberation.

In early life, before we are even consciously aware of it, we begin to utilize the coping skills and self-talk language that the adults around us used. Later in life, we may realize that these coping skills and styles of self-talk are ineffective for us. I hope to help you reconstruct your internal dialogue to be healthier and more adaptive to your life circumstances. I hope to use our conversations as a means to help you reconnect with the authentic you. Therapy, to me, is about understanding the connection between one’s mind, body, and spirit. Once we learn that relationship, we can be our most present and confident selves.

I believe that we all have an innate wisdom and capacity to know the solutions to our problems but we may not be aware of our potential.
