Do you sometimes find yourself operating from outdated beliefs and patterns that no longer serve you? Such patterns can hold us back and make life seem futile and meaningless, leaving us feeling drained and defeated. They may stem from traumatic experiences, difficult life transitions and challenging relationships. However, we can heal and find new meaning and inspiration in life even after major setbacks. Therapy can help us rekindle hope, creativity and purpose. I help people update their belief systems and functioning so they can regain their autonomy and live more adaptive, fuller versions of themselves.
I am a certified EMDR therapist and use trauma focused, mindfulness, and Jungian oriented approaches to help people process trauma, manage anxiety and depression, and reestablish their connection to their core Self. I love working with immigrants and those seeking to find their sense of home, belonging and balance amidst cultural and personal challenges.
It is not easy to reach out to someone and seek help. Placing your trust in a therapist or a process takes courage, commitment and self-awareness. I acknowledge and honor this, and look forward to being a guide and witness to your process. Your mental health forms the core of who you are; take good care of it. Call me for a free consult.

I work with trauma survivors and people struggling with anxiety and depression or going through difficult life transitions. EMDR has a structured approach that allows us to target negative beliefs that are at the core of traumatic experiences. This helps us zero in on a specific clinical focus and start working on it right away.

I often start my sessions with EMDR resourcing and grounding techniques to help with emotional regulation and mental balance. I also use mindfulness and body awareness strategies to help clients stay centered and in tune with their bodies. This helps people better monitor and understand the way they embody their moods, emotions and behaviors.
