Founder

Thank you for visiting our page and considering working with our growing team of dedicated and highly educated professionals!

Over the past six years, I’ve evolved from being a counselor to becoming a teacher of concepts. This shift has transformed how I work with clients, as I now focus on empowering you not only through support but also through education. My goal is to equip you with the tools and knowledge needed to navigate your life with greater independence and awareness.

At the core of my work are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Stages of Development PsychoAnalytics. These approaches allow me to guide you through challenging thoughts and emotions while helping you understand the deeper patterns and stages of your personal development. I believe that understanding why we think, feel, and act the way we do is just as important as finding solutions.

In working with children and families, I integrate a Family Systems approach, teaching parents and children how to communicate effectively and function better together. By fostering this understanding, I empower families to continue growing as a unit beyond therapy.

Moving forward, Turning Corners will not only continue to offer individual and family counseling but will also introduce education seminars, workshops, and groups at our new facility as we seek to grow our sphere of influence over the community. We’ll also offer groups for Domestic Violence, along with referral services and specialized treatments to address this pressing need.

I’ve also learned that communication and relationship-building are essential to making progress. My philosophy is that if we establish a strong therapeutic bond, we can work through any challenge together.

Thank you for considering working with our team—we’re here not only to support you but to teach you the concepts that will help you achieve lasting change.
