It is common to experience bouts of anxiety, depression, grief, or feelings of helplessness and hopelessness during life. However, these are not issues to suffer through for the rest of your life. My aim is to work collaboratively with you to develop insight into your struggles and nurture innate strengths to help overcome these challenges. I have over ten years of clinical experience treating a variety of psychological difficulties such as addiction, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, ADHD, child/adolescent issues, anger management, relationship issues, and performing psychological and learning disability/ADHD assessments.

Stress is an inevitable part of life and aspect of the human condition which, in its unhealthy and extreme forms, can manifest as clinical anxiety, depression, and other problems in living (e.g., substance misuse). Perhaps you have experienced the attendant extremes in thought, behavior, and emotion that are brought about by struggles in modern living but you, like many, have hesitated to ask for help or, after trying various forms of therapy, have not made the progress you expected and you’re questioning whether therapy is right for you. This is where I come into play.

My priority first and foremost is to build trust in the client-therapist relationship. It can be challenging to share painful thoughts and emotions with others, so I believe it is a privilege whenever I am allowed into someone’s internal world. I take a holistic and collaborative approach to therapy, working with clients to address life transitions, family or relationship issues, overwhelming emotions, and self-harm. Having worked extensively with ethnically- and gender- diverse populations, I especially enjoy helping young adults explore their sense of identity and find meaningful roles in their communities.

We often lead busy lives and give low priority to self-care and stress management. As such, we allow depression, anxiety, traumas, dysfunctional relationships, and/or addictions to impact on us. Many issues can be avoided by checking in with how you think and feel, by resolving past traumas, and by developing new skills in dealing with life. Together, we will work to reconcile with memories, resolve traumas, and set meaningful goals for the future. We will work on improving relationships, addressing hurdles, and exploring new possibilities. You will discover your strength, uncover your courage and values, and find your voice.
