Hidden stress, untreated trauma, fears, long term anxiety and depression can easily cause psychical illness. Bodily signs can be different according to gender and age. Unwrapping those hidden factors can help women with pelvic pain, irregular menstrual cycles, infertility, lack of desire, constipation or sexual difficulties. Erection problems, sex life changes or even an overactive bladder can be physical symptoms of hidden stress for men. Children often experience bed wetting, stomach pain, constipation or voiding difficulties without any medical conditions. My speciality is to help in these psychosomatic conditions.

Life is often disorienting. Struggling to find sound footing in the seeming chaos often leaves us feeling lonely, confused, and overwhelmed. This can be paralyzing, leaving us unsure of what to do or where to turn. In the midst of this, reaching out and seeking support may seem "simple" but is often the most courageous thing we can do. Therapy can provide the space for you to share your story - with all its simplicity and complexity - and to be seen, heard, known, and cared for by another. This difficult yet wonderful process often lays the foundation for greater healing and freedom.

There may be times when your stress interferes with what you want in your life. You may be experiencing a mix of anxiety, panic, burnout, physical pain, sadness, anger or frustration with others and/or yourself.

The stress you're experiencing may be related to a difficult time in your past, your present, including injury, health anxiety, work or sport performance, anticipating the future, or a combination.

Are you struggling in certain areas in your life? Maybe you are having anxious thoughts and generally feeling as if something is not right at present or for a long while.

I will provide a non-judgmental space to talk through challenges that continue to plague your mind and wear you down physically and emotionally.

At the best of times, there are challenges – and COVID-19 has amplified many of those and created new ones. Perhaps you are feeling anxious about what feels safe, fearful about finances, more lockdowns, and variants, or angry about decisions that individuals, institutions, and governments are making. Children, teens and adults in their 20s and 30s feel particularly robbed of opportunities, milestones, and social connections. Mixed in with this is the normal range of issues that occurred pre-COVID: conflicts, frustrations, lack of self-confidence, loss, grief, parenting struggles, separation & divorce, loneliness, and school issues.
