Services
Overview
Of course, what matters and is most important is what I can offer you. Being of service has been the primary focus of my life. And by service, I mean helping people like you uncover and explore your own value. Because, believe me, however you feel right now, you do have power to make a shift that will bring healing. And then something magical happens. I have seen it happen time and time again: when we make an internal shift, when we reframe and refresh – our life not only looks and feels different, but the world responds to us differently. Difficult relationships smooth out, resolve or simply remove themselves from our lives. Traditional psychology says that your experience has created your beliefs. That is why practitioners often take detailed biopsychosocial histories (recently adding their spiritual component – thank goodness!). Recognizing that belief creates experience has proven helpful in many situations; it opens pathways to new opportunities not yet discovered.
My wish is to create a safe place for my clients in which they can explore what is working and what is not working in their lives and relationships.
