Since choosing a career in health thirty years ago, I've dedicated myself to providing caring and supportive services to those struggling with their physical and mental well-being. Over the past decade, I've had the privilege of working closely with my patients to identify the best mental health care options tailored to their individual needs. I help adults and seniors find effective treatments that aim to reduce their symptoms, prevent the progression of their conditions, and enhance their quality of life. It's rewarding to see the positive impact this has on both my patients and their loved ones.
First session
I begin my relationship with my patients by conducting an initial consultation, which allows me to learn about their medical, mental, educational, work, and social histories. I ask the right questions to create an honest environment through my harmonious and professional style. When we determine the most appropriate and rational treatment, we will continue to meet, continually evaluating its effectiveness until you reach your ideal mental health goal. As a bonus, I'm offering a complimentary career coach consultation if you're interested in employment.

Treatment methods
Somatic
I always start with an introductory session, where you’ll have the opportunity to share your story and what you hope to achieve with your treatment. We’ll work together to figure this out! I strive to create a warm, welcoming environment that allows you to feel comfortable sharing and being vulnerable, while also feeling secure. From there, we’ll work together during the visits to make safe and healthy choices to help you reach your goals.
