Knowledge is power

Knowledge is power. Throughout my life, I have strived to gain understanding and knowledge into what affects us as human beings, in our relationships, and in the relationship with ourselves. I believe that knowing how to improve the quality of our thoughts is the secret to an empowered and fulfilled life. My passion is to assist others in developing their personal power to lead a life of freedom while making more mindful choices for themselves. I have over 25 years of experience in the field of mental health and addictions, and hope my knowledge and experience may assist you in your life path.
