Conflicts. Heartache. Angst. Chronic worry. Fear. Prolonged Sadness. Anger. You probably tried to deal with your struggles on your own, but you are not meant to suffer alone. Most of us reach out for help to family and friends. But sometimes you need more. You need someone who knows how to help you through your difficulties. You need someone who will hear, understand and help you find your way out of darkness. You need someone who can help you develop the courage to say no to toxic choices and yes to life-affirming decisions.

I have 22 years of experience helping people worldwide with their various life challenges such as anxiety, depression, anger issues, etc. I view therapy as an opportunity for personal growth, not just as a means of problem-solving. Many of our issues in the present stem from messages, both explicit or implied, that we learned during childhood to protect ourselves from criticism or judgement by parents, society or peer. Through therapy, we will work together to identify and uproot these messages that are holding us back. Too often these ‘messages’ turn into beliefs that lead to unconstructive defence mechanisms and coping strategies.

You have a deep desire for more in life, even if you're uncertain about how to reach it. It's essential to know that you're not alone in your journey.

You're overwhelmed and second-guessing everything. Often you feel like a failure and an imposter and wonder how you got here. Some days you’re the man you want to be, and others, you’re barely holding it all together. There are days when you feel lost, hopeless, and lacking direction. Stress, anxiety, fear, anger, and even depression are negatively impacting your relationships, your work, and your sense of confidence. You want so much more from your life but are not sure how to get there.

I provide my patients with a safe, warm and judgment-free environment to discuss their most personal and intimate life struggles.

In over thirty years working as a psychologist, I have become convinced that the most effective way to help others is through a collaborative approach. When the client and therapist work together to find solutions, the emphasis is placed on the client’s individual perspective and the strengths and successes they have already achieved. At the core of therapy, I believe, is a non-judgemental and compassionate view of how everyone’s personal journey involves overcoming suffering and moving towards self-acceptance, empowerment and emotional well- being.

You might have been putting most of your energy and simply trying to get through the day for a long time. Being overwhelmed by fears, exhaustion and emotional isolation has become your norm. You have tried hard to change but have not been able to make it last. Escaping might give you relief but you know it is not a permanent solution. You tried to be seen but only part of you was accepted. You have pushed anger away and it came back even stronger. However, deep down, you know you are more than your pain. You have not given up yet as you are still seeking. You are yearning to live your life vibrantly.

What if you could improve the quality of your life and your relationships by changing the way you think, feel and behave? I work with adults who struggle with anxiety, self esteem, stress, and anger issues, to do just that. I help individuals become aware of the thought patterns that keep them stuck and prevent them from living their life to the fullest. I show people how their thoughts, emotions and behaviours are linked and provide the necessary skills to change negative habits that have become normal over time.
