In our sessions, we explore how emotions may be connected to the difficulties you are experiencing. My ideal clients are adults who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, or emotional stress, often related to relationships, family, or major life changes such as immigration. Many come feeling stuck, emotionally confused, or caught in patterns they can’t change on their own. Often, people are not fully aware of their emotions or tend to avoid them. Over time, this can increase anxiety and show up as negative thinking, sadness, relationship difficulties, indecision, parenting stress, or challenges with life transitions.
help individuals with anxiety, depression, and emotional stress by exploring the emotions behind these struggles. With over 15 years of experience, I specialize in Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP), which focuses on how anxiety is connected to deeper emotions.
It takes courage to look at yourself and your emotions, especially when things have felt overwhelming. I really respect that. In therapy, we work together to understand what’s going on and find a way forward, so things can feel less heavy and more manageable over time. If this feels like the right step for you, you’re welcome to reach out.

In our first session, we work together to understand what's been troubling you and begin exploring the underlying emotions, often ones that have been avoided because they felt too painful.
