As C.S. Lewis once penned, “Pain is God’s megaphone to man.” Pain often negates one’s hope, but pain can also lead us to a surrender, where the door of hope awaits our opening to the possibilities of change that will be the genesis of better tomorrows.  

I know the significance of investing resources of time and finances in search of solutions. To honor clients’ efforts, I expedite time together by using an extensive and in-depth personal history and a variety of assessment tools in order to develop an all-encompassing focus of care. I apply both time-proven traditional methodologies, as well as cutting-edge and holistic treatments of care. Each modality is supported and endorsed by stringent, widely accepted research models and professional standards.
