I specialize in the Anxiety Disorders, Trauma/PTSD, Insomnia, and Couples/Marital issues. I start off getting to know the person/s I'm working with, their history, story, and needs. Then we work together to create a plan of action based on your goals and utilizing evidence based approaches. Most of the people I work with see a gradual lifting of symptoms over time, with motivation and effort.
