My practice:


My goal is to help you reduce your pain and learn how to be happy.  However, you, as the client are always the priority and the goals and choices are always your own.

My practice consists of adults, individuals and couples.  My passion is to watch my clients become empowered and create better lives for themselves, their partners and all those around them.


Many times when people first come to therapy, they have old hurts and wounds that they have been unable to let go of.  At times, before we can move forward, we have to spend some time looking at those old wounds to find clues to why we are experiencing pain or frustration in the present.  Looking into the past might be necessary but  it is not the main focus of therapy.  Our focus is mainly on the present and how we can make your life better.

In therapy sessions, we focus on what it is you want in your life, and then work on ways to achieve those goals. Learning communication skills is another important tool you will learn, especially in couples counseling.

We can enjoy so much in our lives while building our self confidence and changing the way we look at ourselves and others.

I look forward to meeting you and hopefully have the chance to teach you new ways to improve your life...wherever you are at this moment, it can always get better.
