My Approach to Helping

Everyone has "issues". Some may be more apparent than others. Some issues are from our environment (family, what we've learned) and from the choices that we make. Some issues may be genetic. Even with the issues or challenges that a person faces, there are tools that a person can use to not just cope with the issues but to become a stronger and healthier individual. I believe that we can all become healthier, strong, autonomous, and be able to express our needs and wants to help us be strong and help others. It can be an uncomfortable road if a person is not sure of how to say what they think and feel, and together we will work it through. We may not be able to change our past, but we are able to change our future by looking at our thoughts and feelings.

More Info About My Practice

I have been licensed for 6 years. I have worked in a school setting with emotionally disturbed children and special needs kids. I work in a hospital and assess individuals who are thinking of suicide. I enjoy what I do, helping individuals become strong in who they are and help guide them to go where they want to go. I like to ask questions because healthy questions can lead to healthy answers. Understanding how we perceive an issue will help a person learn how to respond to an issue instead of react to one. It takes work and sometimes we can make things harder than the situation may need to be. The past can not be changed but how a person looks at their present can help change their future. You can let your circumstances define your life or you can let your life define your circumstances.
