My approach to treatment is centered on creating a safe and collaborative environment for those who are seeking help. I believe in the concept that there is a continuum of health, and while at one level a behavior, thought or feeling can feel healthy, at another level this same thought, feeling or behavior can be experienced as problematic. Part of our work together may be determining what is feeling problematic to you, and how we can use your strengths to shift your experiences so that they are more in line with the life you would like to be living.

People often ask me, "What is the purpose of therapy?" I believe there are a few answers to that question. First, you come to therapy to defrost grief, unexpressed rage and other negative feelings, e.g. traumas, losses, betrayals. You also learn to re-parent yourself. Second, you come to have a better transition in your work or love life, or to improve your performance and personal relations. Finally, you get to share your dreams and goals in a safe environment, with no judgment, and to produce amazing action plans to manifest your best life ever.

You're overthinking situations, criticizing yourself, and can't seem to relax. Negative thoughts begin and it feels like you're spinning... and spiraling. You feel unproductive and you start catastrophizing. At times, you feel irritable and frustrated as to why you're impatient and struggling in where to begin. Other times you feel nothing at all - and alone. You want to be more positive, confident, and fulfilled. You want to break toxic cycles, hold boundaries, and find purpose and hope for the future. You want healing and peace and wish that you could confide in someone who will listen - REALLY listen to you - and not judge.
