My goal is to help you enjoy your life again, improve your relationships with others, to reduce your unhappiness and learn how to be happy. However, you, as the client are always the priority and the goals and choices are always your own.
Many times when people first come the therapy, they have old hurts and wounds that they have been unable to let go of. This is common. At times, before we can move forward, we have to spend some time looking in our past for clues to why we are feeling what we are in the present. When we do this, we often "let go" of old hurtful feelings and are free to move on. This process is sometimes necessary but is not the focus of therapy in my office. The focus is always on the present and how we can make it better.
During our time in therapy, we work to uncover what it is you really want in your life, and then learn the ways to achieve those goals. Learning communication skills is a very important part of therapy, especially in couples therapy.
I Believe: We can change so much in our lives by building our self esteem and by challenging our beliefs and thoughts.
About Me:
I've had the human experiences of being married, having children, going through divorce, was a single mom and then went through "empty nest". During that time, I was a housewife for several years, then worked full time doing accounting, while raising my children. After the "hard part" was done, I decided to return to school. After receiving a Masters Degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of San Francisco and completing a 4 year internship with a local family counseling agency, I passed the state licensing board tests and became a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. My focus today is working with adults individually and as couples to teach communication and other skills that lead to living a happy and fullfilling life.
I look forward to meeting you and hopefully we'll have the chance to work together to improve your life...where-ever you are at this moment, it can always get better.
