My belief as a therapist and as a person is that all people, no matter where they are in life, are equipped with the innate ability to experience mental health. I do not see people as “broken”, rather, at some point in life, all people will find themselves “stuck” for one reason or another. My focus is to create a safe environment to educate and support clients while assisting them in meeting and exceeding their stated life goals.
I believe every session should be focused on what the client believes he or she needs from that particular session.
I believe the speed of the leader is the speed of the gang. My goal is-always to lead by example. My personal life shines with the same light that I encourage my clients to follow. My approach to life is to live abundantly in whatever circumstance comes my way. I teach my clients this practice and together we see change that is often nothing short of mind blowing.

Although one might categorize much of the therapy in my practice to be based in CBT, I would argue that my clients move far beyond CBT to discover a deeper meaning and connection to themselves and the world around them. It is never my goal for my clients to stop at “just getting through” life. It is my intention to help them “ grow through “ life.
Understanding the power of our thoughts and the stories that we tell ourselves is crucial to change. My approach to change is simple and effective when applied through conscious intention.
