Having experienced my own share of life transitions and dedicated to helping others navigate similar journeys, I deeply empathize with what you're going through. I specialize in working with individuals, including adults, teens, and children, amidst significant life changes who seek stability, structure, and security. My clients often face transitions such as career shifts, relationship changes, or personal growth journeys. Their challenges may manifest as anxiety, depression, uncertainty, and a sense of being overwhelmed by the unknown, coupled with a need to regain control.
I offer personalized care, using evidence-based therapy approaches, including ACT, DBT, and Motivational interviewing, tailored to your unique needs. I bring a depth of knowledge and experience to our sessions, helping you navigate challenges such as anxiety, depression, uncertainty, and a sense of being overwhelmed.
Navigating life's twists and turns can evoke a whirlwind of emotions, ranging from anxiety, intense sadness, and fear to excitement and anticipation. It's normal to experience a mix of these feelings, and it's perfectly okay to seek help when you feel overwhelmed or confused by them.
