Empower Yourself for a Healthy Mind and Life
My Approach to Therapy: Building a Better Future by Focusing on the Present
We can’t change difficult situations from the past that may control us, but we can work together to better understand and resolve them. While some issues require delving into the past, most can be addressed by gaining control of your life and learning how to live in the present to build a better future.
Empowerment and Coping Skills
As your therapist, my role is to provide you with the right coping and problem-solving skills and to empower you to trust yourself in resolving present issues, thus gaining control of your life. A healthy mind and life are achieved when you are empowered to deal with life’s constant challenges and resolve issues independently.
Addressing the Past When Necessary
In cases where past issues need resolution, I will apply complementary approaches and techniques. Together, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
Immediate Relief and Long-Term Change
I focus on small changes to bring immediate relief while working on long-term changes for lasting relationships. My goal is to empower you to focus on the present and improve your future, rather than dwelling on the past.
Realistic Expectations and Collaboration
Life often doesn’t align with our desire to change ourselves and those around us. I will collaborate with you to learn coping skills for when changing life’s realities isn’t possible.
If you’re looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or are ready to move in a new direction in your life, I am here to guide you.

Confidentiality is one of the most important components between a client and a Psychotherapist. Successful therapy requires a high degree of trust with a highly sensitive subject matter that is usually not discussed anywhere but the therapist’s office. Every therapist should provide a written copy of their confidential disclosure agreement, and you can expect that what you discuss in session will not be shared with anyone. This is called “Informed Consent”. Sometimes, however, you may want your professional counselor to share information or give an update to someone on your healthcare team (your Physician, Naturopath, Attorney), but by law, your therapist cannot release this information without obtaining your written permission. However, state law and professional ethics require therapists to maintain confidentiality except for the following situations:
Suspected past or present abuse or neglect of children, adults, and elders to the authorities, including Child Protection Services and law enforcement, based on information provided by the client or collateral sources.
If the licensed professional counselors have reason to suspect the client is seriously in danger of harming him/herself or has threatened to harm another person.
If a judge has ordered the release of the information.
