My approach helps people find their own way via self reflection, self care and self compassion. I have over 15 years of experience working with adults and youth dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, eating disorders, BPD. The modalities used include Internal Family System IFS, trauma informed CBT, EMDR Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing, CBT and DBT. In my practice, I create a safe and trusting environment, providing people with the emotional support needed to overcome challenging times and make positive adjustments to be and feel your best.
Life can be challenging and unpredictable, and when we suffer, feel lonely, down or lost, we need someone to talk to, someone who can listen attentively without judgement and when needed, offer a healthy perspective and someone who helps us see our own personal good and path again.
Be kind and good to yourself! Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation. Life is too short to delay feeling better, put yourself first and start working on you now please reach out to.
