Personal Statement

If you identify as LGBTQ, struggle with discovering a new future, and/or have an addiction or chronic illness. I understand what you are going through. I also specialize in the difficulties of life in the world of entertainment. Or perhaps you are feeling stuck in life or without a purpose.

Life hands us difficult challenges. Ironically, it is often those challenges that turn into our biggest blessings. But we must be willing to search. We often forget that one of our most beautiful gifts is the freedom to pursue happiness. There is nothing stopping us from that pursuit.

I want to make sure to offer a comfortable, relaxed and conversational environment for you. Remember this very powerful thought . . . "We will never remember an exact incident or experience. We will only remember the words we use to describe it."
