Personal Statement

As a young child and adolescent, I was challenged to deal with circumstances without the proper skills, tools and guidance. As an adult, I experienced downfalls that led me to my personal healing journey. In my life, I have also been fortunate to meet exceptional people that have changed my life and have been a source of strength and encouragement. My personal growth has also provided me with many opportunities to re-discover myself and enjoy the natural beauty of this world.

The path to healing starts from within. The Clinical Therapist guides the healing process through clinical modalities to fit the needs of each unique individual and family . As you begin your journey in the healing process, you will begin to discover your own healing power that will create a new vision in your life. Discover your individualized treatment plan that can encompass creating a healthy home/work environment, improving your relationships and finding your unique/creative qualities.
