Care Philosophy
"Life is about transitions; from child to adolescent/teen, high school to college, and from college to adulthood. Many transitions bring about changes in mood and feelings, as well as changes in the family dynamic. Whether you are a parent struggling to communicate better with your child or an emerging adult who is confused and overwhelmed by life, I believe every patient deserves to gain clarity, peace and a sense of relief. My goal is to provide the space needed to achieve your goals."
