My ideal client faces challenges like anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD, or phobias and feels stuck or overwhelmed. They want tools to cope, build resilience, and regain a sense of balance. Their goals include personal growth, improved communication, and enhanced well-being to lead a more fulfilling life. They value self-improvement and seek counseling to navigate their struggles, working collaboratively to achieve progress and thrive.
I provide compassionate therapy to help individuals and couples navigate life’s challenges and foster growth. With 14 years of experience, I treat depression, anxiety, trauma, OCD, and phobias. EMDRIA-trained in EMDR, I also use CBT and Exposure and Response Prevention to build resilience, improve communication, and enhance well-being.
I understand how overwhelming life’s challenges can feel, and you don’t have to face them alone. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, trauma, or other concerns, I’m here to help. Together, we’ll build tools and resilience for positive change. You deserve to feel empowered—reach out today to start this journey. Let’s work toward a brighter tomorrow.
