Young people often have a mistrust of people in the helping profession because many are too cerebral, too impersonal and too disconnected from their reality! I have been working with young people not by accident but because I enjoy working with them. High-school and college aged students are real and I appreciate how honest they are with what they think and feel and need. I keep therapy on the lighter side not as a strategy, but because it's who I am as a person. I am a rare therapist in t...

At times the intensity of these emotions can cause people to cope in unhealthy ways and sometimes result in feeling really worried and sad about things. The basis of my work has been to support children, young adults, and families in managing these symptoms so they...

A therapeutic relationship allows you to be vulnerable without judgment, and creates a safe space for you to explore your true self. My goal is to provide relief from emotional distress, and to work with you through the process of healing. My therapeutic approach is str...

You put on a brave face for others saying, "I'm fine", suffer in silence and hope time will make things better. The only emotions that can hurt you are the ones you don't acknowledge.

You are simply human, like the rest of us, wanting to feel relaxed, connected, engaged, inspired, confident and valued. I invite you to make...
