When you experience a traumatic event (no matter how BIG or small), you can struggle with a variety of symptoms. You might notice nightmares, depression, anxiety, changes in your relationships, feeling on edge, even having intrusive memories of the events. You may have tried to deal with these issues by numbing out, avoiding triggers, or even talking about the events, but nothing seems to change.

You might be second-guessing everything—from how you looked in that photo to what you said in a conversation days ago. Even when you're around others, there’s a quiet voice in the background wondering if you're falling behind, if you’re “enough.” It's exhausting trying to keep up and hold it together while holding it all in. If this sounds familiar, you're not alone—and you don’t have to keep managing it all by yourself.

Are you wanting to make a change in your life to improve your wellbeing? Have you found it difficult to see progress even though you’ve tried a lot of self-help tips and perhaps even therapy before? Fortunately, I specialize in advanced psychotherapy approaches that have been shown to be effective in treating mental health issues that are resistant to other forms of traditional talk therapy. These evidence-based approaches can be used to treat personality disorders, trauma, medically unexplained symptoms, functional neurological disorders, anxiety, and depression.

I work from the perspective that we’re all managing something, no matter what age. Whether it’s worries, relationship challenges, or problems with learning. Sometimes we need help understanding what it is that’s happening for us, while other times we understand the challenge, but not how to make changes. I meet you wherever it is you’re at, whether you’re seeking help for yourself or for your child.

Have you found yourself wanting help and support, yet others in your life think of you as the “strong” one and don't see your pain? Perhaps you work in a helping profession and don’t know where to turn for your own therapy. Anxiety, depression, or even burn out can lead to feeling lost and lonely. Maybe you have people with personality disorders in your life that make you doubt yourself or make the “easy” things very difficult. Many people are feeling disconnected from their community, themselves and the larger "something more". Creating a safe space where you can be heard and understood is the foundation of my work.
