I utilize "eclectic/integrated" approaches for clients in need of life change. Some of my specialties include: life coaching, marriage/couple & family therapy, anger/career management, depression, anxiety and PTSD. We provide a safe, trusted & confidential client environment. I help clients improve their stress management, coping skills, work-life balance and emotional stability. Many desire "inner healing" from life crisis situations. I also guide clients seeking direction, transformation and accountability by helping them to self-discover their core values, destiny, life purpose, sense of worth, creativity and untapped potential.
