Create Balance and Wellness
Do you want to be a spiritual warrior in 2009? Have you felt like what you feel on the inside doesn't match what is on the outside? You are not alone, and don't have to go through this alone.
There are two kinds of people struggling...those that don't feel alive on the inside and withdraw, or mask their feelings with a happy face. Others will act out with risk taking behaviors (drugs/alcohol, sex, addition to anything extreme including all of our high tech gadgets!) to compensate for not feeling alive on the inside.
I believe that therapy is a process in which the therapist and client must first build a trusting and therapeutic alliance. I follow an eclectic approach and therapy is different with each individual. I believe that people can make life changes by looking at their lives and setting goals. I am there to help guide the road to personal growth and healing or recovery. It takes a great deal of courage to begin looking at one’s life or one’s issues. I have many years of experience in the field and I know many people suffer a long time before receiving help.

"Everything can be taken from a man but one thing; the last of the human freedoms—to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way."
