As a, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I use a collaborative, integrative, approach in treatment. I believe that healing and learning occur when they are not only talked about but experienced. Creating an environment that allows people to feel safe, open, and free to express themselves in ways that are uniquely suited for them is very important to me. I treat the whole person, taking into consideration the mind, body, and spirit of each individual. Special care is taken to insure dignity and respect to all people that I work with across cultures. I believe that it is important as a therapist not to sit in a seat of judgment, or take on the stance of being all knowing. Listening to my clients and helping them to unleash, what I believe they already have, which is the ability to heal from emotional, psychological, and physical pain, is something that comes natural to me. I believe in order to heal the emotional, psychological, and physical aspects of a person they need to work on the spiritual components that are relevant to them. I combine years of experience, training, and personal triumphs in my own healing with your knowledge, personality, and strengths to get a great deal accomplished in therapy. Therapy does not have to be an exhaustive drudgery. Working through your issues can be exhilarating, fun, and adventurous. If you think you have tried everything, or therapy has not worked for you in the past, you have not experienced therapy with someone like myself who has not only been there, but takes you on a path to healing that is invigorating and rewarding.
