Happy November! Yes, it’s here. Already. The end of the year fast approaching. For most of us, the next few weeks mean spending time with friends and family. Well-meaning, demanding, loving, judgmental, funny, selfish, caring friends and family. Yippee! I’m just joking. But only a little bit. The truth is that most of us are… Continue reading…

Remember when you were in elementary school? Maybe you went to a school where you sat in one classroom for all of your classes. Maybe you went to different rooms for different subjects. You might’ve been the girl who chose to wear a dress every day. Or maybe you were the kid who’d only eat… Continue reading…

I DO THINGS
A LITTLE DIFFERENTLY
I’m not “just” a therapist who focuses on the impact your past has on your present, or “just” a coach who focuses on your present and future.
My holistic approach weaves coaching, therapy and positive psychology (the science of happiness) together for maximum impact, so you can start feeling real happiness now, even as you’re clearing out the negative issues and traumas that hold you back.
Whether you need a sounding board or an impartial view, help breaking out of entrenched habits that aren’t serving you anymore, or even deep healing around childhood trauma or some other spiritual, psychological and/or emotional wounding, you’re in the right place.
