I want to acknowledge your courage for taking this first step of prioritizing your mental health. I understand the fear and anxiety of beginning this journey of the unknown as I, too, have experienced the process. So whether this is a small or big step for you, I’m glad you’re here. You may have lived through life’s stressors by having to go on survival mode, causing you to cope in ways that don’t really benefit you in the long term. This can look like isolation, overstepping your boundaries, invalidation of self, or a self-written destructive narrative that fulfills cultural and societal expectations.

But why aren't you hearing this inner consciousness? Because you received a lot of false messages from outside of yourself starting at a young age, you trusted these messages, they became your false beliefs and negative stories. To navigate through life with these false beliefs and stories, you developed coping skills which were often unhealthy or no longer effective. You've also overcome a number of traumatic experiences, which have made your inner voice even weaker..

For the past 20 years, I have been working with children and teens who are struggling to balance the demands of school and their social life. I integrate parents in my work as much as possible. I also work with adults and Couples often come to me for help in distress and are confused about how or why their relationship has derailed. I am dedicated to helping people build stronger; more intimate relationships and I use several modalities when attempting to help couples in distress.
