A lot of us have negative and self-defeating thoughts causing problems in our lives.

Would you like to make positive changes but are having difficulty following through?

Would you like to have more positive interactions with others?

I practice using an eclectic approach which includes the therapeutic relationship with a positive focus on the individual and the changes to be made. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy is integrated in the approach.

​I help to motivate you and cheer you on as you make positive changes in your life!

​Therapy is nonjudgmental and accepting of all people and  situations.
