After receiving my Doctorate in Medicine, I worked in the medical field for over twenty years. Because I am fascinated with, and passionate about, understanding the inner emotional struggles of human souls, I studied and received my Master’s in Counseling Psychology in 2011. Subsequently I left the medical field to focus solely on counseling, giving guidance to children, adolescents, adults, and couples. I primarily utilize a multicultural, integrative counseling approach which considers the affective, cognitive, behavioral, physiological, social, and spiritual aspects of human beings. I am always pursuing further education and training in the areas of trauma, grief, and play therapy for children.
Our minds have been created with an inner capacity for healing. Therapy is a learning experience that can change the way people think and remember events that have affected their lives. This process can bring about a great sense of peace and happiness to the human heart.
For as he thinks within himself, so he is. (Proverbs 23:7, NASB)
My desire is to help individuals and families to renew and heal their minds so they can live the abundant, purpose driven life that God has designed for us. I believe that we have been wonderfully and carefully created by God, and He has given us life principles to transform our mind, attitude, character, and actions. As a therapist, I respect spiritual diversity and welcome people of all belief systems.
There is hope for this journey: A renewed mind and a new beginning. If you need help with this, I would love to hear from you.
