I help people deal with the after-effects of traumatic experiences ranging from single events to chronic trauma. I use a multicultural approach to therapeutic interventions which is informed by my life’s journey as a professional in multiple disciplines. Sometimes we find it hard to cope with stressful life experiences, relationships, or a traumatic event. We feel overwhelmed, vulnerable and unable to see what our options are. Our coping mechanisms become exhausted and no longer function effectively.

Imagine waking up with energy. You didn’t struggle to fall asleep. You didn’t wake up throughout the night. You didn’t have nightmares. You got through the night without flashbacks, without going over and over the past in your mind. You’d wake up and get out of bed. And because you didn’t feel like you ran a marathon overnight, you’d greet the day with peace and contentment… Even excitement for all the things you can accomplish, since you aren’t weighed down by exhaustion, anxiety, or depression. You wouldn’t be so worried about all the potential triggers… All of the things you could come across in a day that could bring you right

Perhaps you're overwhelmed with anxiety, stress, or past traumas that affect your daily life and relationships. Maybe you oscillate between exhaustion and hypervigilance. Important areas of your life are suffering because of how you feel. You want to feel more connected, confident, and in control, but previous attempts at therapy left you feeling misunderstood or invalidated. I work with clients who want to feel productive, in control of their emotions, and more connected in their relationships. They acknowledge the impact the past has had on the present and are motivated to heal and gain control.

Existential Therapists

How does existential therapy work?

Existential therapy focuses on a patient’s inner experiences. The therapist tries to help the individual comprehend and alleviate symptoms by exploring their interior life. By confronting negative disquiet and emotions, the individual will hopefully become more open to finding meaning and purpose. This therapy can be administered to individuals or groups.

Is existential therapy evidence-based?

Existential therapy is an evidence-based practice. Research has determined that existential therapy can lead to significant improvement in the mental health of patients, and for some people it can be just as effective as cognitive behavioral therapy. The benefits of existential therapy are enduring, even long after treatment has ended.

How long does existential therapy last?

The goal of existential therapy is to understand a person’s internal experiences, which may sound like a lengthy process, but it does not have to be so in-depth. However, sessions are not short-term, and therapy can continue for months or up to a year. And because patients learn the theory behind existential therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have been completed.

Is existential therapy effective?

According to research, many patients find success with existential therapy. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in improving feelings of isolation, feelings of purposelessness, as well as conditions such as anxiety and depression. Improvements in problem areas can persist even after the end of existential therapy, as individuals can continue working on themselves by using the tools they’ve developed during treatment.
