My Practice
The Process
I am a therapist that believes "Love is Love" who helps individuals, couples & families through life transitions, such as loss of a loved one or situation, becoming a parent, or adjusting to life. My sacred work is rooted in being productive (so you can gather healthy ways to cope with life), being focused on your therapy goals (so you can transition out of therapy), and being supportive towards the balance of life (spiritually, physically, mentally & emotionally).
I offer parenting (traditional, single + alternative) therapeutic support, consultations & workshops on Positive Parenting, Building Your Self Esteem & Finding the Gift in All You Do.
I am an active and compassionate listener that has a creative, mindful, dynamic, empathetic, and respectful approach in my thankful role as a therapist. I am committed to inspiring others to be stronger and more balanced in living a life worth living by incorporating meditation, mindfulness, prayer, and narrative practices.

Mother / Daughter
“Whenever you’re in conflict with someone, there is one factor that can be the difference between damaging your relationship and deepening it. That factor is attitude.”
–William James
The challenges of learning how to be true to ourselves within a relationship, while simultaneously being honest and loving in our communication with each other will be a focus of the work done in couples and mother/daughter therapy.
Resolving differences effectively, seeing the higher purposes and value in the relationship, and increasing mutual caring, respect and support will be primary purposes in our work together.
Mother/daughter sessions are often supported in exercises we create on the spot, targeted at changing interactional patterns that don’t work.
Individual Journey
“Vulnerability is the core of shame, fear and struggle for worthiness, but it appears it’s also the birthplace of joy, of creativity, of belonging, of love.”
–Brene Brown, TED Talk
In one to one work, we will look for ways to grow in awareness, insight into, understanding of and acceptance of who we are. We will focus on relating to ourselves with kindness, and on ways to make progress in the areas that matter.
Experiencing positive self-empowerment may be an outgrowth of this work. We’ll work together for a 50” hour per session, at a level of frequency you determine – although it’s frequently supportive if initially sessions are closer together.
Couples & Pre-Marital Counseling
"A dream not understood is like a letter not opened."
–The Talmud
Looking at the communication from our own higher wisdom as it comes to us through can reveal opportunities for growth. We may come to deeper understandings of ourselves and of those with whom we share our lives. We may find direction in the areas where we have questions as to our next steps. We may come to enjoy a fuller experience of our own inner wealth and beauty.
