No Day But Today! My mantra for living a genuine, purposeful & passionate life & one in which guides my clinical practice with clients. No doubt life can be hard. It can strip away our self-worth, feelings of hope & our ability to find happiness in life. At times, we can resolve issues on our own however at other times the help from a compassionate & professionally trained therapist can make a significant difference. So long as you have "hope" & are willing to do some "work" & trust the "process" I feel confident in my ability to help you begin to feel better.

Seeking out a therapist can be an intimidating venture, so I make it my priority within the first contacts to help the client feel relaxed and confident in my expertise to assist them while creating an environment of safety and trust where they can examine, experience and process their own thoughts, feelings, or anything that they deem important. As your therapist, I empathically listen while doing my best to answer any questions that may arise in therapy. This approach creates a forum where the client feels comfortable to share their struggles and helps them alleviate barriers and fosters an authentic therapeutic connection.

We all have parts of ourselves that we want to deny, run away from, or just ignore. But those are the parts that we need to get to know so we can grow and move on from our past hurts and traumas.  Ever feel like you have two sides of yourself that are at constant odds that stop you from making decisions and moving forward? Do you ever feel that you have become your anxiety or depression? Did you know that most of our behaviors; even the ones we don't like are meant to protect us.

Yet, we often feel lonely and unheard. I extend an invitation to you to join me in a nurturing environment where vulnerability, tranquility, and personal growth are cultivated. You're taking the first steps towards a peaceful life filled with connection and that's something to be admired.
