Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, or stress? Struggling with communication or past trauma? Whether you’re an individual, couple, family, or child, you’re seeking clarity, relief, and practical tools to manage emotions and improve relationships. You want lasting change, emotional balance, and healing. If this resonates, I’m here to support you on your journey toward growth and well-being.
I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Through CBT, we’ll work on challenging negative thoughts, while ACT helps you accept emotions and build mindfulness. Together, we'll create practical strategies for lasting change and healing.
I understand how overwhelming life’s challenges can feel, and you don’t have to face them alone. I’m here to offer support and practical tools to help you heal, grow, and find balance. If you’re ready to take the next step, I invite you to reach out—let’s work together.
