Therapeutic Focuses:
Grief & Loss

Men’s Issues
Mental health issues may manifest differently in men than in women, resulting in mental health issues going ignored and untreated. Men may minimize or not recognize their own emotional pain, causing it to bottle up in ways that may lead to physical health issues.
Self-Esteem Building
Self-esteem is a measure of how much a person values themselves. Individuals with low self-esteem may lack confidence and be overly critical of themselves. People with low self-esteem often feel shame and self-doubt. They often spend lots of time criticizing themselves. Therapy can help you change the way you think about yourself.

Career Counseling
Career counseling is designed to help with choosing, changing, or leaving a career and is available at any stage in life. One's career is often one of the most important aspects of adulthood, and embarking on a new career, whether for the first time, the second time, or any time thereafter, can be a stressful event, especially when economic difficulties such as recession are a factor. I can help by outlining and discussing one's potential career options.
Multi-Cultural Challenges
People from different cultural groups may be negatively stereotyped or heavily discriminated against because of their differences from a main culture. In fact, Race or heritage can play some role in health throughout one’s life.
Pet Grief Counseling
One of the loneliest types of grief might be that of a person mourning a pet. Seeing an animal pass away, like caring for someone sick, can carry a heavy emotional burden — but because it’s not a human, most people don’t give enough credit to just how devastating it can be. People may feel isolated at the loss of a pet. The bond with an animal is not given the same status or respect or intellectual validation that other relationships are.

Even if you feel lost, there's hope and treatment that can help you. There are many reasons that trauma hurts us. One thing you may not know is that trauma physically changes our brains. When you experience a traumatic event, your mind changes. Psychotherapy can help you heal so you can live a productive and fulfilling life.

Family therapy is necessary to address family issues and heal a family’s wounds. Not all conflict is bad, and often times we can feel closer to our family after resolving conflicts. The family system is a living breathing organism. When one part of the system changes the whole system is effected.
