Over the last 11 years, I have had the privilege of working with great people in helping them achieve their potential. I focus especially on creating healthy relationships within the family environment, and teaching children positive self esteem and respect for themselves and others. I apply positive psychology and strength-based training to increase the abilities and desires of youth to succeed and improve performance at home and at school. I have tremendous respect for the notion that no one is great at everything, but through hard work everyone can be great at something.

In the journey into adult life, there are inherent pressures associated with child development, including anxiety and the struggles with self-image. I entered the mental health field because I can empathize with these pressures and wanted to help others experiencing similar difficulties. I enjoyed being a support system to family and peers; also feeling that a key component to an effective support system is guidance to discover solutions, I translated that passion into my adult life.
