When we talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary. At some time in our lives, each of us may feel overwhelmed and need help dealing with life circumstances that lead to depression and/or anxiety. Problems with relationships, loss of a job, family issues, death of a loved one, can at times be debilitating and knock you off your game and make it hard to enjoy life. Psychotherapy can help you address your symptoms in a more permanent long-lasting way. It gives people a designated space and context in which to delve into difficult issues and then leave safely, without wounds exposed.
Need someone to help you find relief? As a psychologist with over 20 years in practice, I help individuals break free from the depression and/or anxiety they experience due to negative beliefs they picked up from childhood (and after). We will also explore circumstances, triggers, and root causes of your suffering to help you progress and move forward.
I will help you balance the day-to-day needs of managing your depression and/or anxiety using effective coping skills. Working together with you in a safe and secure environment, I help you explore your story, uproot your negative beliefs, and live a freer and more enjoyable life.
