Empower Yourself to Change

Are you seeking a satisfying and meaningful life with healthier relationships? Having trouble creating the life you really want to live?

You need both support and the right tools for change!

I start by honoring the strengths you already have while helping you to develop lost or hidden aspects of your self. My approach emphasizes the important connections between physical, emotional and spiritual well-being – including the value of a good sense of humor! I will collaborate with you to develop individualized goals and a treatment plan that’s mindful of the ways issues such as gender, sexual orientation, and culture create the context of your life.

Contacting a therapist is the first courageous step toward:

  • Understanding your emotions, thoughts and behaviors in order to make healthier choices
  • Creating more loving relationships while handling conflict effectively
  • Empowering yourself to work through symptoms (such as depression, anxiety or trauma) that keep you “stuck” – as if you are just waiting for your life to get going.

I offer individual and couples therapy to adults seeking insight and tools for change. I am conveniently located near Mopac and 35th Street.
