Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

My Values

Confidentiality

All contact with us is held in the strictest confidence. Whether we communicate via email, documents, telehealth, or in person, all communication is private and requires both your verbal and your written permission for us to consult with doctors, attorneys, schools, or other therapists should the need arise.

Creativity

It is the responsibility of the therapist to have the experience and the training to assist families in developing effective interventions and treatment plans. Every system is indeed different and requires different solutions. We are persistent in our commitment to change.


Acceptance

We are experienced in working with different cultures, ethnicities, social/economic backgrounds, and struggles. Competent therapists are life long scholars who are always open to new frameworks.
