Feel Better.Call Me for a Free Initial Phone Consult Today.
“"Have you been feeling sad, unappreciated and frustrated? Do you wake up feeling empty, misunderstood, and confused? Have your relationships been a source of anger, agitation and irritation? Has it been difficult to communicate your thoughts and feelings with your loved ones? If so, now is the time to seek professional guidance.
I am a special kind of counselor who listens with her heart.I treat children age 3 onwards who have signs of sadness, anger, frustration, and aggression. I offer sessions for teens who are engaged in a power struggle with their caregivers/parents, who show signs of confusion, frustration, and have inadequate coping skills.
I am available for couples and families who seek to experience a sense of joy, clarity, and fulfillment in their relationships. I am available for late night sessions and available one Saturday each month.I believe that everyone has the capacity to heal, grow and reach their happiness potential.
