As men/women we have to embrace the need for growth, change, and elevation. The first step to embarking on that journey is accepting the need for mental health self-care. As we endure life we are faced with many challenges, and although they may not have an impact on the outside they cause many challenges on the inside.

For many of us, life can be tremendously challenging. And when we feel we have reached a breaking point, reaching out for help can be one of the most life altering and uplifting decisions. As a cancer survivor, and a person who has lived through and overcome adversity; I know first hand what it means to feel anxious, depressed, and unsure of where to turn.

My vision is for people to understand the value of taking care of their mental health each day. Our Mental Health plays a significant role in our overall health and well-being. As we navigate the challenges that we all face in this life, it is important that we learn to recognize our mental health needs and how we can take better care of ourselves in this area. One of my goals is to help remove the stigma that many of us have regarding seeking counseling. You do not have to have a mental illness in order to seek out or benefit from counseling. Seeking counseling is a form of self-care.

Everyone has a story, with both highs and lows, both challenges and gifts and with infinite opportunities to grow. As in any story, the setting and other characters all influence you and what happens, including institutional systems, social constructs and family dynamics. The roles we take on and the patterns we develop to get through one chapter may not always be helpful to us in later ones. I believe there is power and healing in telling your story and that with guidance, you can own it, rewrite aspects of it, and choose what role you play. I believe we are all capable of changing our lives and that no change is insignificant.
