Core Values

authenticity

Shield with a check mark

For our health and prosperity, we must remain true to our own inner being. When we are doing this we will not only be physically and spiritually aligned but our interactions with others will be more enjoyable and our social interactions with others will improve. While we are complex humans with multiple selves there is one intuitive voice that needs to be acknowledged, listened to and expressed.

Depth

Puzzle pieces fitting together

We as human beings are complex. If we aim to understand ourselves and others more fully we must peel back layers in order to gain a more complete understanding of who we are. It is also important through a process of continual expansion to build on these complexities in order to promote further personal growth and become deeper still. Personally, I take great joy in continuous learning in various forms, either academically or through experiences gained through travel, books, physical activities, languages and hobbies. As we continue to expand we also interestingly become more complete, driven and at peace.

honor

Gold star ribbon

As someone who works with others, often discussing very personal and intimate details, I take great pride and responsibility in the appreciation of the importance of the therapist role. I want to work together with you to achieve the optimal outcomes possible. I have an admiration and respect for individuals with regard to the unique position they are in within their own life and where they want to be and it is a pleasure to work with my clients.

Pragmatism

Icon of the sun

It is imperative in my view to use practical approaches when aiming to provide solutions to problems that we are confronted with. I believe that consistency and habit development are necessary to help us attain our long term goals. This is often accomplished through consultation with the latest in scientific research and use of applicable and helpful tools.

spiritual

Picture of a cross

It is my belief that there are transcendent forces in the world that powerfully affect all things. As a faith based Catholic psychotherapist I believe that we must continually strive to be as close to God as possible. In the consideration of purpose and vocation this means discerning God’s will for us as His plan is right and all loving. Through our therapeutic work together we aim to facilitate the process of discernment in determining a vocational path for you.
