No matter what difficulties you are facing, you can overcome them and I will help you! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) which means my training and experience is in individual therapy, couples therapy, and family therapy.
Seeking the support of a psychotherapist is a positive step toward actively addressing and resolving emotions and situations that are troubling you. Many of my clients start therapy because they are feeling anxious or depressed, burdened by relationship struggles, or overwhelmed by life's demands. Others utilize the therapy experience as a way to improve personal happiness and explore self-improvement within themselves and with their relationships with others.
No matter what you may be feeling, please know that you, and your life, do have the potential to change. The therapy process helps change the way you think about challenges, how to respond in relationships, and how you care for yourself. It's my honor to guide my clients through the therapy process and leading them to a happier life. Together we can identify your goals, find solutions, and discover personal strengths.
INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
I treat individuals with various issues, my extensive experience includes treating anxiety and stress, depression and sadness, bipolar disorder, adjustment disorders, relational issues, low self-esteem, work related issues and life transitions.
We will focus on personal growth, healing, increased insight and self-understanding. My highest priority is helping you open doors to a new life. I offer a non-judgmental, compassionate environment to help you heal and take charge of your life. You will learn techniques that bring you closer to the person you want to be, to help you make decisions, build the relationships you wish to have, and have the life you want to live.
