It's completely normal for our mental health to have ups and downs, but sometimes we hit roadblocks we just can't move past on our own. If you're finding it hard to stay calm in unfamiliar situations, struggling to quiet racing thoughts, or simply wanting to create a more fulfilling life, you're not alone. I'm here to help you uncover what's holding you back from experiencing true happiness and fulfillment.
In therapy, I take an open and honest approach, working with you to find creative solutions that fit your unique challenges. I also believe in the power of education, offering insights that will deepen your understanding of mental health. Together, we can explore where barriers come from so you can begin to move past them.
Since life can be unpredictable, I offer in-person and virtual sessions to fit your needs. I specialize in treating trauma and have experience with evidence-based practices like EMDR and Prolonged Exposure

While the type of therapy can vary from person to person, I treat with an existential philosophy, which means you can expect us to look for deeper meaning while fostering personal accountability. As a gold standard for trauma treatment, I often use EMDR as a first line of treatment for trauma and PTSD.
