The main issues I help with are anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, trauma and eating disorders. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and continued sustainable improvement thereafter.
