I never thought of it like that… This a phrase I often hear from my clients as I challenge them to think outside the box and embrace different perspectives and approaches. It’s essential to ensure your unique story is known, seen, and heard. . I help children, adolescents, and adults learn to identify and express their feelings and develop coping strategies to deal with difficult situations. Also, if interested, I offer animal therapy with the adorable ICAN therapy dog, Levi (see pic below), providing unique support in our healing work together. “Healing is an art. It takes time, it takes practice. It takes love.” – Maza Dohta I’m Levi, the best boy! I am a certified ICAN service/therapy dog and here for you. I provide individual and family therapy specializing in victim trauma, general mental health problems, substance abuse, and chronic behavioral health problems. I also have experience working with children and families struggling with history of domestic violence, addiction, and adolescents on aggression replacement, responsibility and lifting self-esteem. Your mental health is a priority. Thus, I create a safe, gentle and affirming environment as you achieve personal goals, cope with past traumas and gain skills to work through difficult times and daily stressors. Through strengths-based and culturally sensitive approaches I support you through your healing jou
