Have you reached the point where you are finally ready to change, feeling stuck in your depression, feeling controlled by your anxiety, worrying that you may lose your family, your job or your life? Maybe you are experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, or feeling overwhelmed enough to affect daily functioning. Many struggle to manage emotions, navigate relationship challenges, or cope with major life transitions. Some may carry unresolved grief or trauma, while others struggle with low self-esteem, self-doubt, or unhealthy coping patterns such as avoidance, overworking, or substance use. I can help you find solutions.
Specializing in diagnosing and treating a wide range of mental health conditions including PTSD, grief, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, substance abuse and family transitions across the lifespan.  Drawing on transferable skills such as therapeutic communication, crisis intervention, genetic testing and interpretation, and medication management.
The path to less depression, better mood regulation, healthier control of your thoughts, body responses and your emotions is to just take the first step. Let's connect and get started on your journey. I am looking forward to working with you to reach your goals in wellness and life!

Many of my clients come to me struggling with depression and trauma—feeling stuck, emotionally drained, or disconnected from themselves and others. Together, we'll work to understand how these experiences have impacted you, begin the process of healing and rebuilding. A typical treatment plan may involve developing healthy coping skills, exploring and processing experiences in a safe environment.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in my practice to help patients assess how their thoughts affect their emotions and drive their behaviors. During treatment you'll learn how to challenge these thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behaviors.
