I have adopted a positive psychology, approach that includes mindfulness and cognitive behavioral health in partnering with my patients in an optimistic goal-oriented manner.Often times a person initially calls when they're feeling sad, alone, depressed, confused, and need to talk. It's an opportunity to explore, feeling a bit out of control, stress, self-image, self-confidence, professional choices, counterproductive habits, and pain. Making that initial phone call (to me or any professional) is the first step towards change. It's an opportunity to achieve, and I am excited to help along that path.I work with individuals, couples, and families, specializing in relationships and fertility. I assist people through life's transitions personally, and professionally. Any of life's challenges that can potentially lead to depression, anxiety, low self-image, decreased self-confidence, loneliness, or behaviors they would like to change.I find that a positive approach, in conjunction with mindfulness, cognitive behavioral health, behavior modification, self-exploration, and reality-based decision making works well for most people. I also believe in the power of pausing. It is typically powerful when those I work with are able to take a moment, to pause and gain perspective of what they are experiencing.When I meet someone for the first time, our conversation usually focuses on relationships, since they are essentially the key to achieving most personal and professional aspirations.
