COUNSELOR
We intrinsically have a deep yearning for a life that is filled with meaning, understanding and love. My favorite quote in The Little Prince is, "It is only with the heart that you can see rightly, what is essential is invisible to the eye". My practice is devoted to revealing the truths within your heart, while offering insight and clarity into yourself, your relationships, dreams, values and beliefs. I seek to help you gain in depth perspectives into your life and self in order to empower you as you seek to acquire further understanding into your behaviors, emotions and/or relationships.
As a counselor, I embrace the opportunity to support you as you navigate life's challenges allowing for a heartfelt and meaningful life. My approach is a holistic one that encompasses various healing modalities including essential oils, flower essences, integrative energy work, and meditation in order to support and enhance the balance of your mind, body and soul.
My expertise includes life transitions, anxiety, depression, grief/loss, end of life care and spirituality. My educational background allows me to blend traditional and alternative approaches to counseling.
