    I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. My work is about helping you change your perception. The story of your life that may have caused you pain and is not serving you anymore. Creating awareness will lead to creating a change, a shift from the way you used to deal with whatever challenges you are facing in the present: depression, anxiety, grief and relationship. By changing your beliefs you will recalibrate. I'm passionate about empowering individuals or couples in their journey to better their life quality into a life they deserve.

      Oct 10, 2022

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go
