Are you struggling with feelings that are often uncomfortable, overwhelming, debilitating or even shameful? Do you find that you have difficulties finding safe, satisfying relationships? Do you feel stuck and confused and unsure of what next steps to take? Are these difficulties getting in the way of you leading the life you want? You don't have to struggle alone. We can work together to uncover the reasons for these difficulties and work through them to a more peaceful, satisfying place.
I have been in practice for over 15 years and work with a wide range of issues. More specifically, I specialize in relationship difficulties, depression, anxiety disorders and separation issues in young adults.
It can be scary or off-putting to make that first appointment with a therapist. I do understand that and will do my best to provide a warm and supportive space for you.
