At this stage of my career, I am focusing on trauma therapy, especially childhood trauma, as I've experienced it to be the root cause of severe depression, anxiety, and relationship challenges in adulthood. My goal is to support clients navigate and overcome these experiences, break free from past patterns, and build a healthier future. by using emotional-focus-individual-therapy (EFIT) approach.
