"The most basic of all human needs is the need to understand and be understood. The best way to understand people is to listen to them."
Change is the only constant you can count on in life, how you respond to it is optional.
About
I am passionate about working with couples and helping them attain positive change.
I believe that we can achieve personal health and well-being.
This is accomplished by providing a safe, confidential, non-judgmental, environment to explore and learn about oneself; collaborating to create goals and positive changes that incorporate ones values and beliefs. This process involves listening, encouraging, and supporting the client. Along with knowing how the mind works and how our emotions respond, there is an art to working with and attuning to people, meeting their needs, and helping them learn to help themselves.
I hold a Masters Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and a Bachelors Degree in Applied Psychology. I am currently working on a PhD in Counseling.
