Frustrated that anxiety is interfering with your work, relationships, and/or happiness? Has anxiety impacted your self-esteem and left you feeling "not good enough"? Whether due to situational stress, traumatic events, or ongoing mental health conditions, I help clients identify unhelpful patterns of thinking/behavior and offer strategies to address anxiety, panic, OCD, PTSD, codependency, and perfectionism. I use evidence based treatments (CBT, CPT, ERP, exposure) to help clients overcome symptoms like overthinking, excessive worry, performance anxiety, panic attacks, procrastination, and avoidance.
I commonly work with high achievers, people pleasers, frontline & allied healthcare professionals, business executives, and elite athletes. I strive to help clients gain the insight, awareness, & skills needed to maximize their potential. In terms of style, I'm a down to earth, straight shooter who often uses humor to connect and inspire accountability.
If you're feeling ready to make change and are looking for a focused, goal-directed counselling experience, let's talk! I work with clients to develop individualized counselling goals and further collaborate to develop personalized treatment plans. Contact me via email for a free, no-obligation phone consultation.
