Your healing journey starts from here

Hello! I am here to help you accomplish your goals and to obtain new skills  in the shortest time possible, so that you will be able to graduate from therapy and become self-sufficient. For life transitional problems, clients usually can graduate from therapy within a few months. For severe trauma and mental health issues, it may take more time. 

I work well with clients seeking help with:

• Depression
• Anxiety
• Stress management
• Forgiveness and Self-forgiveness
• Interpersonal Challenges – Shyness, self-esteem, difficulty forming relationships, current conflicts in relationships, learning to assert yourself
• Grief or Loss – Bereavement, divorce, break-ups
• Life Coaching – Creating the life you want, achieving professional and personal excellence

I have worked in the tech field as a CPA/consultant for 18 years, so I can empathize with your struggles at work.

How therapy would look like: you get to decide the focus of the session, set the pace, and ask me what you need (i.e., learn new skills, explore different ways to look at a situation, seek guidance, etc). You are welcome to talk about anything: spirituality, sexuality, all expressions of gender identities, and all lifestyles. Nothing is off-limits.

I will gently listen to your stories through your lens instead of mine. I can help you find words to describe your experiences and to make sense of them. You are in charge of your life’s journey and you can choose from several different evidence-based treatment options that I will present to you. With my scientific yet simple explanations about your situation, you will know how these interventions can heal you. 

I will be happy to explain how therapy or life coaching can help during your free 30-minute consultation.

I look forward to hearing from you.
