We all experience challenges in our lives. Our primary relationships or lack thereof, shape the way in which we understand the world and our problems. I work with people in a way that examines relationships, relational narratives and that validates & identifies the emotions one may experience.

With this in mind, I specialize in working with anxiety, identity concerns, life transitions, interpersonal struggles and trauma.
