Be proud of yourself. If you have found my profile, you have already taken the first step toward helping yourself, this may be the most difficult of them. If you're looking for support toward healing past traumas or navigating any symptoms you may not even understand, such as anxiety or depression. If you're tired of "being over dramatic", having nightmares, panic attacks or even, struggling to get out of bed, take that second step and reach out. Therapy can be scary, but so can the thought of being stuck in the cycle your body and mind are finding you in now.

I utilize a holistic approach integrating various techniques, including EMDR, to personalize your treatment.

Over one out of five adults struggle with mental health symptoms and at least half of them do not receive support due to not having access to this type of help or believing they will never feel better. These symptoms often occur with life adjustments including loss of loved ones, loss of jobs, medical issues, and changing responsibilities at home, work, and school. When symptoms interfere with your quality of life, it’s time to get some support!
