Abuse, trauma, unmet needs, feeling unseen, unheard, or misunderstood in childhood affect the way our brains develop. This includes the lens in which we perceive the world around us and to understand our role in it. Understanding yourself, healing your inner child, feeling your emotions, and navigating relationships are crucial for creating and nurturing your inner emotional strength, resilience, and health.

Believe it or not...this is a FUN process. The most important aspect of counseling is to attain the goals you identify. You are the expert in your own life. I am comfortable working with clients who have identified almost any problem area but specifically I am well trained in treating anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, and problems in the social and family environment. I work on the goals you identify rather than my opinion of what you should work on. This makes me a very non-judgmental personal and I develop strong positive relationships with my clients.
