My goal is to provide a safe, therapeutic environment, where clients can share their innermost struggles and challenges without feeling judged or criticized.  Therapy is an avenue to address the challenges in life that sometimes seem unmanageable. I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship, based on genuine acceptance and unconditional positive regard, can be the pathway for change to occur.  I work with individuals, adults, and teens on a variety of issues and disorders including but not limited to depression, anxiety, parenting issues,  abuse, grief, trauma,  low self-esteem, life cycle transitions, and substance abuse. Adolescent counseling is aimed at helping young people make sense of their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors.  I work with Youth on Anger Management •Anxiety •Behavioral Issues •	Bullying •Depression •Emotional Disturbance •	Family Conflict •Grief •	Peer Relationships •Relationship Issues •Self Esteem and Trauma .
