Can't stop procrastinating? Keep repeating the same unhealthy relationship patterns? Afraid your loved ones will leave or stop loving you if you do anything wrong? Burnt out & unable to juggle it all? Drained from trying to prove yourself at work and in relationships? Unsure who you are after compromising your own values & needs for others? Controlled by impulsive behaviors like scrolling, spending, or drinking too much? If this sounds familiar, I might be a good fit for you. I help adults struggling with these issues to build confidence, improve relationships, and find relief from trauma & other emotionally distressing experiences.
My approach is about more than just coping skills. I blend relational and experiential therapies with EMDR to treat the root problem, not just the symptoms. Together, we can identify and work through issues & patterns keeping you stuck. We will work to reduce the distress you are feeling, so you can be present and engaged as the best version of you.
Head to my website to book a free 20 minute consultation with me. In the consultation, we will spend some time exploring your needs and my approach to see if we're a good fit. Even if we decide you need something different, I'll help you determine how to find it. You deserve to prioritize yourself and find the best therapist for you.
