Navigating life's challenges can feel like traversing a winding road alone, but it doesn't have to be that way. As a therapist, I understand the courage it takes to seek support and the vulnerability that accompanies sharing your innermost thoughts and emotions. My approach to therapy is rooted in empathy, compassion, and a deep respect for your unique journey. Together, we can create a safe space where you can explore your feelings, confront obstacles, and uncover your inherent strength.
I specialize in couples, family and individual therapy. I am trained in the Gottman Method (the gold standard for couples therapy), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR). I am committed to using the latest evidence based treatment with my patients to help you heal.
Whether you're grappling with trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or simply seeking greater self-awareness and personal growth, I invite you to take the first step towards healing. Your story matters, and I'm here to listen without judgment and support you every step of the way.
