By taking the step to initiate therapy, you are already beginning the process of change. At times, we feel lost or lack of confidence to navigate through critical and life-changing circumstances.

As a clinician, I will use a mindful approach to facilitate the process of helping you reconnect with your strengths and discover skills, strategies and resources toward a healthier life.
