I offer a non-judgemental and person-centered approach to therapy. I can help you with: grief and loss, life transitions, stress and burnout, depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem, and more.
I also specialize in providing evidence based treatment(s) for various mental health disorders. My clinical interests include treating anxiety disorders, depression and trauma/ PTSD. I provide symptom screening, assessment, and evidence based treatments that will help you develop the skills and tools necessary to effectively cope and manage your symptoms.
