Therapy is more often than not viewed as a place reserved for those suffering from crippling psychiatric disorders, or symptoms otherwise deemed as "diagnosable." Therapy is in fact, beneficial for any one individual with, or without, presenting concerns or symptoms at hand. It is a space for individuals to freely discuss their ideas, hopes, frustrations, and joys throughout life.

My counseling philosophy is person centered, holistic and existential. I believe that - Life is a process of moving towards wholeness.... Our brokenness is the basic human dlemma and each person's story is unique... It is because of this uniqueness that we all encounter different paths.... Empowering clients and helping them to move forward involves many paths also - from cogntive, behavioral, solution focused, humanistic, psychodynamic to marriage & family therapy ... and all are essential in meeting the client "where they are" and helping them to move forward.
