I specialize in providing compassionate, empathetic therapy for adults and teenagers (18+) dealing with anxiety, compulsive behaviors, substance use disorders, depression, life transitions and trauma. If you're struggling with patterns of thinking, feeling, or behaving that you'd like to change—whether it’s managing compulsions, overcoming addictions, or breaking the cycle of people-pleasing at the expense of your own well-being—I’m here to support you.
My approach is grounded in creating a safe space where you feel heard and validated, and we work to process your past while setting the foundation for a healthier future.
I truly believe that healing and personal growth are within reach—and together, we can uncover your inner strengths and work toward a sense of wholeness. I use a variety of tools and therapies including Internal Family Systems, Attachment theory, CBT and Maternal deprivation/attachment injury in women based on the book Mother Hunger.
I provide a warm, safe and non-judgemental environment to help my clients work towards their goals. I would love to hear from you.
"Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate."
