I work with clients who may be struggling with depression, anxiety or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.
