I see my work with people as helping them to live happier and more fulfilling lives. Because we are all different, my services are highly individualized and I do not have a "one-size-fits-all" approach. I take a collaborative approach to working with you. Together, we will first understand your issues and then find better ways of coping, by learning and practicing skills that will allow you to make long-term changes in your life.
