I specialize in general clinical psychology (various anxiety and mood disorders), health psychology, and evidence-based practice. I use cognitive behavioral therapy with a collaborate approach. At the beginning of treatment, we work toward figuring out what isn’t working for you and how to initially get you some symptom relief. I value getting to know you and your thoughts, beliefs, and coping strategies. I help you find ways to cope that are more effective. I strive for genuine relationships with my clients at any stage of adulthood where we can discuss issues openly. You are included in treatment-related decisions.

If you have been spiritually abused, you may have experienced constant manipulation and control, where religious beliefs dictated every aspect of your life, instilling deep feelings of shame and guilt. You might have faced threats of divine punishment to enforce obedience, leading to intense fear and anxiety. Isolation from friends and family may have been enforced to prevent questioning, leaving you feeling utterly alone and unsupported. Over time, these experiences can erode your self-worth, autonomy, and mental health, causing lasting emotional and psychological trauma.

Anxiety is a major obstacle that can get in our way of living the life we want. While a certain amount of anxiety is normal for all persons, those with excessive anxiety may find themselves experiencing constant worry, doubt, and self criticism. Depression, substance abuse and relationship problems often follow. However, these problems are manageable. But first you will need to understand your beliefs, your motivations, and behavior. I will work together with you to help you feel safe by learning to manage your thoughts, using evidence-based therapies which will help you develop insight into your situation.
