POP: Positivity, Optimism & Passion...Life, Love, Live!

About Me


Hello! I’m Dr. Valerie, a licensed mental health professional, and I joined MySpace because I have a lifelong commitment to improving the mental health and well-being of people throughout the world. My global message can be summed up as POP: Positivity, Optimism & Passion™ ; I believe that through these three attributes, anyone can take control of their life and change it for the better.
I specialize in the treatment of individuals, families, children, adolescents, marriage counseling, eating disorders, and the general improvement of emotional health. Through my unique perspective, I am effective in assisting individuals to improve their overall quality of life and achieve their personal health and wellness goals.
I am pioneering the field of E-health by reaching out to the MySpace and internet communities. In the ever-changing world of the internet, I believe that those in need of emotional health recovery should be able to receive counseling in the privacy of their own homes as well as office settings. I am available to address a variety of health topics or consultation in the areas of emotional wellness, successful relationships, parenting, behavioral/emotional problems, and bringing POP back into your life, relationship or workplace!
I look forward to meeting you and remember:
