As a licensed clinical psychologist, I view my role as guiding individuals along a journey of self-discovery and growth. I assist people in gaining insight into their issues and finding solutions to their problems by providing direction, encouragement, support, and hope. In order for positive changes to occur, a person must begin to modify his or her dysfunctional thinking patterns and unhealthy behaviors. From a solution focused approach, I work with my clients in a collaborative relationship to strengthen their sense of self and improve their quality of life.

A feeling of being in darkness, restlessness, or fear might be a sign of anxiety, depression, trauma, unresolved grief, or of a transition in your life. Those conditions may lead a person into being less functional, non productive, or struggling in making decisions. I believe that each of us possess an inner strength that is capable of bringing healing, restoration, and life. It sometimes may just be very difficult to recognize and to access this inner strength. We might long for relief, to raise our self esteem, a higher functionality, productivity, or just to be able to simply see the light at the end of tunnel.
