I am passionate about working with individuals struggling with OCD and/or other anxiety problems. Do you struggle with unwanted, bothersome thoughts about harm, germs, relationships, or sexual themes? Are you stuck in a cycle of excessive worry that you can't seem to stop no matter what you do? Do you find yourself engaging in repetitive behaviours only for the anxiety to return? These are my areas of practice and I want to help.

Are you feeling disconnected from yourself, unable to access a version of you that feels trapped within? You are not alone.

Wounds from hurtful experiences can significantly impact how we perceive ourselves, the world, and others. These wounds may prevent you from living a life aligned with your true wants and values.
