I am most drawn to working with clients who actively engage in the therapeutic process and demonstrate a willingness to confront challenges with openness and honesty. Clients who are motivated to explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and actively participate in setting and working towards their therapeutic goals. Clients open to feedback, willing to try new strategies or techniques, and committed to personal growth and self-improvement. By collaborating with clients who are proactive and engaged, I believe we can cultivate a productive and enriching therapeutic relationship that promotes lasting change and fulfillment.

Have you or your child been experiencing anxiety, grief, or change in mood and behavior? Was there any past trauma to address? If you answered yes and are looking to create change and live a balanced emotional and behavioral life it can be achieved. You can live a healthy balanced life and feel the control that you are looking for. Your life has multiple ups and downs throughout your story. At times it can feel like you are not in control of things that you believe "should come easy". You have already taken the first two steps. First recognizing things are not the way you want them to be and secondly searching for answers and help.
