I provide a safe place to help people to develop new strategies to change old patterns that are not working in their lives.  I also believe that a person needs to be treated holistically, to support behavioral change through eating, dietary habits, and lifestyle. I help people learn to identify dysfunctional beliefs that lead to negative consequences in mood and behavior and stimulate emotional growth by teaching people to replace their self-defeating thoughts, feelings and actions with new and more effective ones. I also help people to replace poor food and lifestyle choices with new and effective ones. 

I teach individuals to be responsible for their own emotions, empowering them to change and overcome their unhealthy behaviors that interfere with their ability to enjoy life.  I believe that the whole person, their physical health, emotional wellbeing, spirituality, career, relationships, and general life satisfaction need to be considered in reaching optimal mental health.

The result is a rewarding sense of responsibility for emotions, empowering people to change and overcome unhealthy behaviors that interfere with their ability to enjoy life.
