“When you make peace with the fact that the purpose of life is not happiness, but rather experience and growth, happiness comes as a natural byproduct. When you are not seeking it as the objective, it will find its way to you”. I believe in the importance of developing an honest and close relationship with my clients. You may find you have rarely had such an honest and authentic relationship before. As you learn to trust the therapist, you will begin your therapeutic journey and share your true feelings and thoughts. Meaningful contact between you and the therapist occurs leading to a thorough exploration of one’s self. The therapy room becomes a space in which old beliefs are challenged and new healthy ideas emerge. A safe space to explore and find true meaning and purpose in life and experiencing heightened self-awareness, self-understanding, self-respect, and self-motivation. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, families and adults with complex issues setting aside diagnostic labels and judgements and focusing on the client’s experience in its full richness and complexity.
