Hello, & welcome! I am a licensed marriage and family therapist. I have been studying psychology since 2000 and began working in the field of mental health in 2006.

I believe that people have the strengths and the resources that they need to solve their problems but with life’s circumstances and burdens, we sometimes forget these strengths and resources.

It is easy to trust others if we feel secure with ourselves. When we experience times in our lives when this confidence is tested, we can become reluctant to reach out for help,[Read More]
