Personal Statement
I believe the therapeutic relationship is the foundation to help clients find success in
multiple life domains. I use a holistic, integrative approach and focus on emotional and
physical health. I provide empathy, respect, honesty and humor to create a safe place to
begin the therapeutic journey. I help clients explore negative core beliefs, detrimental
family of origin patterns, maladaptive coping mechanisms and toxic relationships that
seem to prevent individuals from finding peace and balance in their lives.
