As a scientist that has worked for a decade in drug metabolism research, I always attempt to utilize evidence based interventions. I strive to provide a collaborative, empirical, transparent process which adopts the best evidence based approaches to my client's unique, personal treatment needs. I am looking forward to rolling up my sleeves and working with you!
I specialize in helping people that may have difficulties controlling their emotions and impulses, therefore finding it hard to maintain healthy relationships. Experiencing feelings of emptiness, problems coping with abandonment, a rapidly changing view of others, quick changes in mood and self harm are not uncommon.
I am particularly proud of working with individuals struggling with addictions and personality disorders, I am even more proud of being able to assist effectively the people that love them.
