When life becomes challenging or your aspirations are diminishing, I invite you to explore your therapy services with me. Therapy is a collaborative process that balances listening to and insightful feedback to help you make the changes you desire. You will have a safe place to explore your emotions, thoughts & behaviors. I will provide you services from a holistic approach to identify resources, problem solve & facilitate services to ensure your needs are met. These services will be developmentally and culturally appropriate treatments that will empower you to address life challenges and enrich your life. I believe that every person is resilient, and has the capacity to heal and live a full life. I have experience with all ages and abilities.
