Is anxiety or depression impacting or derailing your life? Do you have goals you want to accomplish but struggle to get out of bed or stay focused?

Finding the right mental healthcare professional is critical. The right help is available; we can get through this together.

I am an EMDR Trained with advance training in BPD as an attachment/complex trauma and Certified Internalized Somatic Trauma Therapist "ISTT.” I specialize in helping adolescents, adults, and families who have experienced trauma. Trauma can take any form - developmental, single-incident, or complex. Many people who have experienced trauma also face various mental health issues. I help them reclaim their lives. I have unique insight into the experiences of people who are immigrants, refugees, or survivors of sexual abuse. I invite anyone who is impacted by trauma to reach out to me so we can start your journey back to health.

One of the few constants in life is change. If you are in a period of transition you may be feeling confused, anxious, or depressed, and alone with your struggles. Times of transition may include: Divorce, educational or career changes, changing stages in our children's or parent's lives, tackling addictions, issues of grief and/or loss. Transitions, while challenging and often stressful, with good professional support can be opportunities for true personal growth and transformation. I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental and confidential place for us to explore together how best to help you to feeling better.

Life has its’ fair share of challenges, often leaving many of us feeling lost, hopeless, and overwhelmingly frustrated. We may loose the ability to focus, problem solve and ultimately make poor choices based on how we think and feel. Often many of us may begin to experience symptoms of depression, anxiety, causing feelings of unhappiness and consequently feeling stuck. Therapy can be of great value to you. In a caring supportive relationship, I will teach you coping strategies to help you avoid repeating the same mistakes and instead move to a place where you have the power and control to change how you think, feel and behave.

Acknowledging the need for support and seeking help is a brave and often scary thing to do. Congratulations on taking these first steps towards healing and growth.
