How can I help you? I work with adults and young people who are facing difficulties in their personal relationships, are suffering from anxiety, depression, effects of trauma, low self-esteem, or other mood/personality disorders. Please contact me if you are looking to improve your overall mental health, or have other specific target goals that you are having trouble with attaining on your own.
My mission is to provide compassionate and evidence-based mental health services tailored to each individual. I focus on core emotional experience and pull in other methods depending on my clients’ goals. Some of the tools I have expertise in include DBT, CBT, emotion focused exercises, somatic therapies, and mindfulness/meditation.
I believe that each person already has in them the natural desire to grow, and that is what therapy with me is all about: personal growth.
