About Me
I have been in practice for over 20 years working with children, adolescents and adults as individuals, couples or families. I believe that every client has personal strengths and characteristics that will enable him/her to reach their personal goals. It is by working together that the therapists and the client discover the obstacles in the way of personal/couple/family happiness and develop methods to overcome those challenges finding joy in the present and excitement in the future.
