About Kelvin

​
Have you ever struggled with lack of confidence, grief, feeling depressed, frustrated, or uncertain about making a difficult transition? If so, I believe we can work together to find a solution. I understand that everyone is unique and likely responds differently to life challenges. At times we may need help distinguishing the things we can and cannot change in our lives; at other times, we need additional encouragement to make necessary changes in our lives. As a nurse for nearly 20 years, building trust, offering hope and words of encouragement, has repeatedly reminded me of the power of empathy and compassion.
​
Our mental and emotional health encompasses all aspects of the individual, including personal circumstances; and science helps us to better understand and provide holistic individualized care to you. Connecting, understanding your needs and building a rapport, are foundational to providing supportive emotional and mental health care to the whole person.
​
Lastly, many men endure life transitions in isolation or with little to no support. Lets change that. Let me encourage you to reach out and find support during those tough transitions and difficult times. Allow someone to meet you where you are, without judgement, so that you may begin to find healing in your life.
