My Approach to Helping
Our mind, body, and spirit are all connected. Given that, it becomes important to attend to each aspect of ourselves so as to remain in balance and have the energy to continue managing life's inevitable challenges.
When one part of self is in turmoil, the whole system may become imbalanced and functioning in all other areas are likely effected. Identifying the core root of the struggle, embracing and accepting one*s emotions, and learning to alleviate the pain through personal responsibility, awareness, and choice can help rebalance the system.Thus restoring one*s sense of faith, increasing confidence in self, and relieving symptoms that cause distress.

Had a Negative Therapy Experience?
It's important to feel confident in the person who is helping you. I encourage you to ask questions, change therapists if you feel a disconnection or very unfortable. Most people feel a clarity and relief once they are in therapy. Having a kind but objective voice can be very helpful especially when life seems most difficult.
