Are you feeling anxious, preoccupied, and/or feel a persistent sense of sadness? Have you noticed some significant changes in your overall mood or outlook on life? Are these feelings and/or self-defeating thoughts disrupting your daily functioning, relationships, work performance, and other important aspects of your life? Therapy will help explore underlying factors contributing to your current state of being and identify negative or unhealthy patterns of thinking maintaining anxiety and low mood. The therapeutic process will help you gain insight, learn tools to maximize functioning, and enhance overall wellbeing.
With clinical experience in hospital, community mental health, and a leading executive and corporate wellness clinic, I deliver individual, couples, and family therapy in the following areas: anxiety, depression, stress management, grief/loss, life transition, trauma-related difficulties, occupational, relationship and family dynamic difficulties.
Embracing a warm, client-centered approach, I help clients increase self-awareness, improve communication, develop healthy patterns of thinking, improve coping and build resilience for overall personal, career, and relationship satisfaction. I'm also fluent in Italian, offering culturally sensitive therapy to individuals from the Italian-speaking community.
