About
My approach to therapy is to work on the present to build the future.
We can't change difficult situations of the past which control us, but we can work together to better understand and resolve them. While some issues require delving into the past, the majority of the issues can be resolved by gaining control of your life and learning how to live in the present in building the future.
My role as a therapist is to provide you with the right coping and problem-solving skills and to empower you to trust yourself in resolving present issues, in order to gain control of your life. Healthy life and mind will be only achieved when the individual is empowered to deal with constant life challenges and resolve the issues on their own.
In cases in which the past has to be resolved, I will be applying complementary approaches and techniques, and we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

I focus on small changes to bring immediate relief while working on long-term changes for lasting relationships.
I work on empowering the clients to focus on the present and to better the future instead of pondering over the past.
While we feel the need to change our lives and the people around us, at times that does not match reality. I will collaborate with you to learn coping skills when the change of realities of life is not possible.

Congratulations new graduates on achieving a milestone. This is where you start your profession and get to help your clients.

As a licensed marriage and family therapist and professional counselor supervisor, I have helped my supervisees in many forms and shapes from consulting on cases to helping them set up their own practices. To be helpful to my supervisees I practice an integrative approach to supervision.

To be effective as a supervisor I find that I act as a teacher, counselor, or consultant, and most importantly as a colleague.

Currently, accepting counseling intern candidates.
