You may want support dealing with a recent or ongoing traumatic experience, a safe place to discuss your childhood, or help in understanding and changing harmful behaviours. Perhaps, you’re a man and want to discuss male specific issues. I support clients working through difficult emotions, gaining insight into past experiences, implementing coping mechanisms, and rebuilding a sense of safety and self-identity. I’m a Clinical MSW student practicing under professional supervision, and I work with children, teens, and adults.

Have you ever felt your mind tangled and chaotic? When emotions overwhelm, clear thinking becomes tough. I hope to create a warm and safe space with you collaboratively, where we can together be aware of and differentiate various emotions, untangle complexities in thoughts, and fulfill genuine needs. Emotions are like internal signals, attempting to engage in a healing dialogue with us. I specialized in intergenerational trauma, mother-daughter relationship, breakup, family-of-origin trauma, eating disorders, identity crisis, narcissistic abuse, anxiety, depression, peer relationships, self-esteem, grief, and loss.

We usually don't seek psychotherapy when we are already feeling great. It often becomes a crucial step after trying everything else. In my approach to psychotherapy, I aim to create a safe and supportive space where we can discover new ways to negotiate your emotional needs. Our goal would be to enhance your well-being in all areas of your life—whether it's relationships, work, or enjoying your free time. Through psychotherapy, I've seen people undergo remarkable changes in how they see themselves and connect with others, leading to a deeper sense of fulfillment in life.

Have you been to therapy before and not had the results you were hoping for? You may have insight into some areas of your troubles, but that insight alone hasn’t been enough. I offer therapy that focuses on internal emotional processes, not how you can change your thinking, but how something can feel different in the moment. Therapy will feel like a corrective emotional experience, where we can work together to notice how your unconscious processes are shaping your experiences in the here and now. I will help you experience emotions safely, regulate your anxiety, and turn against your ways of coping that are keeping you stuck.
