Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected from your life? If you're struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression or life transitions, you're not alone-and you don't have to navigate this on your own. I'm a licensed and board-certified therapist with over 30 years of experience helping clients of all ages repair and thrive.
As a trauma-informed therapist, I specialize in treating PTSD, complex trauma, anxiety disorders, phobias, fears, depression, grief, and emotional dysregulation. I offer evidenced-based therapies such as EMDR, CBT, CBT-I, TF-CBT, DBT and Mindfulness based therapy, tailored to your personal life experience, cultural background, and unique goals.
Whether you're seeking an in-person therapist in Hudson Falls, NY or if you would like virtual therapy, I provide a welcoming and non-judgmental environment to explore your feelings, reclaim your self-worth, and journey toward joy, clarity and connection. I offer a free 15-minute consultation so we can explore how therapy can help you find your path forward.
