As a trauma-informed therapist, I specialize in supporting people with anxiety, addiction, trauma, ADHD, depression, and grief.
In addition to Talk Therapy, I use techniques as a Creative Arts Therapist to access deeper insights and feelings. While words are powerful, creative expression—like art, movement, or sound—can unlock parts of ourselves we didn’t know existed. If you’ve ever turned to a song for comfort, you’ve felt how creativity touches deeper truths within us.

I use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help clients address issues such as stress, general anxiety, social anxiety, panic attacks, depression, low self-esteem, insomnia, trauma, grief, OCD, ADHD, career exploration, and relationship difficulties.
I was one of the CBT therapists in a treatment outcome study funded by the National Institute of Mental Health. The average success rate for treating Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) in the literature is around 50%. In this research study, my success rate at treating GAD was 90% and that held true even as measured one-year post-treatment.
