Seeking counseling can be one of the most difficult decisions a person can make. It is also one of the bravest decisions. Day to day life is stressful, and at times, life tosses us a curveball. My goal is to help you identify your strengths, and help you navigate through the stresses and transitions that many people struggle with. You are not alone, and I am so glad that you are here. Some of my areas of focus are on addressing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, family dynamics as well as parent coaching.

I work from a person-centered approach that draws from other theoretical techniques designed to address your individual needs and goals. The process of counseling is to understand you as a unique person; explore and gain insight into your thoughts, feelings, experiences, and behavior; and enhance quality of life by implementing parts of the counseling process into your daily living. Our therapeutic relationship will be collaborative and we will work together towards setting and meeting your counseling goals.

My approach to counseling is to focus on strengths and help to assist with solutions rather than telling my patients what to do. My focus is to address short-term problems as well as long-term psychological well-being. The more you can tell me about what and how you are feeling, the more effectively I will be able to assist you in resolving your personal problems and issues. I believe all individuals are deserving of acceptance, respect, compassion, and understanding, and all children are capable of success in academics, extracurricular activities, and social interactions.

You're passionate about your work. It's your purpose and mission in life. I'm passionate about it too - and about working with burned out (or those wanting to avoid burnout) because I know what it's like from personal experience. Time off and self-care help but are not enough. More important is the inner work to deal with the exhaustion, loss of empathy, cynicism and hopelessness about the cultural and systemic pressures to produce more and to satisfy work demands. Self-sacrifice is not a sustainable strategy. Alignment with your true Self and the real demands of Life are sustainable strategies for wellness.
