My Approach to Helping

I believe that we all have the capacity to grow and transform throughout the lifespan. My work helps those encountering situations in which personal change and growth are needed (and perhaps resisted) reach their fullest potential.

My work is grounded in the philosophy that we are all connected in some way to larger systems around us. The way we function and feel is a result of and affected by surrounding systems. We cannot hope to change individually without examining the purpose of our thoughts/behaviors/emotions within the context of a larger system.
