Are you feeling overwhelmed with the pressures of life or haunted by your past? I collaborate with my clients to gain understanding of unhealthy patterns, make sense of how past experiences are impacting them today, and develop more effective approaches to handling life’s challenges. During my 15 years of practice, I have helped many clients gain confidence, manage their emotions, and develop healthy alternatives for coping with stress.
My clinical practice initially focused on CBT, but over the past few years EMDR has become my main focus.
Therapy doesn't have to be a tedious affair. I love to use humor and warmth in my work. However, there is always an underlying focus on personal growth. I will work together with you to develop personalized interventions needed to conquer your challenges.
