Hello, I know life can become challenging and stressful, which can prevent us from living in a way that we want. We have all had times in our lives when our thoughts, behaviors and emotions can feel out of balance or alignment. Therapy can help support and facilitate being on a positive path to well-being and personal growth for optimum work/school life balance and overall happiness with yourself and within your relationships.

As a psychotherapist/counselor, my goal is to help you increase potential and lead a more satisfying life personally, relationally and professionally/academically. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work to better understand the current impact of the past, and how to grow and move forward in our lives. 

By applying a variety of therapy approaches, health/wellness and collaborating, together we may take a closer look at emotions/communication/thought patterns or perceptions, behaviors, values, history as well as relational dynamics, to hopefully get going in the right direction.

I view my role as helping you process, resolve and/or heal towards increased confidence, mental health wellness and clarity with yourself and with others.

I work with individuals, couples and families to:

    • Increase Intimacy & Connection
    • Build on Existing Strengths
    • Understand the past to better the future
    • Enhance communication and coping skills
    • Live in Increased Balance (when possible)
    • Create or Sustain Healthy Relationships
    • Maintain, Balance and/or Transform Family Legacies, patterns and values
    • Process and move through Cross Cultural, Racial or Ethnic Identity
    • Process and begin to heal through Race Related Issues and Dynamics

If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve and process your goals.
