I believe that the power of therapy comes through the understanding of how self defeating patterns of behavior interfere with our ability to have a happy and productive life. I believe that focusing and building on our strengths will enhance our functioning. Examining our behavior is critical to developing healthy options for ourselves and in our relationships. Through an open and respectful process we will examine the areas in your life that have interfered with your ability to make positive, forward thinking choices. As you develop different coping strategies the hope of change will support healing and growth.

Therapy is an intimate journey, one that invites you into a warm, welcoming sanctuary where your feelings can breathe freely. Imagine stepping into a space bathed in soft, soothing light, the gentle scent of lavender wrapping around you like a comforting embrace. At the center of this haven stands a stunning mirror, not just any mirror, but one that reflects the depths of your emotions and thoughts. As you gaze into it, you see your true self, illuminated and vulnerable, guiding you to uncover and cherish every facet of who you are.
