It can be challenging and stressful to find a therapist and share your feelings with a stranger. I am committed to helping you be comfortable and validate your feelings to make this process easier. In my approach, I would like to explore the root of the problem and help you towards personal growth and healing. My focus would be to help you make healthy decisions through a new mindset which will help restore balance and freedom in your life.
My clinical expertise is in the field of addictions, co - occurring disorders and sexual behaviors. I have experience working with individuals affected by various moods and personality disorders, adjustment issues, eating disorders, sexual behaviors, anxiety, co - dependency, conduct disorders and oppositional disorders.
