I see a client as a caterpillar in a cocoon, searching to find themselves, growing within, wanting to break free, cracking the shell, spreading their wings, and taking flight into enlightment. It is an honor and privilege to be a part of my client's journey through the therapeutic process. When a client commit's themselves to being vulnerable and exploring new and heathier ways to function, they can experience transformation of self. Each person is a unique individual who possesses the ability to discover their true self that is capable of love, peace, and success.

I strongly believe that clients have the desire and strength to work through difficult and painful issues with the guidance of a caring and knowledgeable therapist. Meeting clients where they are and being present is key to helping clients feel validated and heard. Setting obtainable goals is an important part of the therapeutic process empowering clients to make changes needed to heal and move forward with more insight and strategies to cope with everyday issues.
