Therapy does not have to be a scary path that we take alone, but can be an extremely rewarding and eye-opening experience that I would deem as a privilege to be able to forge with you. Mental health and life can come with its challenges but when faced together challenges can be conquered with grace and understanding and it is my goal is to help you reach your full potential on your journey through life. Mental health is not about our destination but about the journey of us getting there and the beautiful roads that we take on the way.

I work with people who are struggling with personality disorders either because you yourself have a personality disorder or someone you care about has one. Personality disorders are unique in how they impact relationships and daily living and they need to be treated in a way that can work for them. I have extensive training in work with personality disorders and know how to help. I can work with you to understand parenting someone with a personality disorder diagnosis, or coping with a partner with a personality disorder, or help you to feel more able to lead the life you want despite having a personality disorder diagnosis yourself

Therapy dissects life occurrences and issues and identifies the obstacles that may be limiting personal performance. Once the obstacles are identified, emotional growth can occur through a process of learning to adapt or removing negative thinking. My job, as a therapist, is to support my clients' feelings and thoughts, while at the same time to encourage the transformation of those emotions and thoughts toward the pursuit of a fuller, more satisfying life.
