Some of the issues I focus on are depression, anxiety, communication skills’ building, pre and post-marital conflict, attention-deficit disorder (ADHD), intimacy/ relationship issues and any day-to-day life concerns.

I became a therapist because, just like you, I am human and have had my fair share of battles. It took a long time for me to get to where I am today. I recognize that in moments of hopelessness, it is hard to find determination, that depression can be scary, that anxiety can be overwhelming, and that traumatic experiences can leave one feeling emotionally exhausted and drained out.
