There are times in all our lives when we don’t quite feel comfortable with ourselves or with our situations. These times can bring about overwhelming feelings of stress, depression and anxiety. We began to think and or act-out in ways which can be self-destructive and non-productive. As a highly skilled and supportive cognitive-behavioral and psychoanalytic therapist, I will assist you with moving beyond traumatic experiences, challenges and un-resolve conflict via personalized evidenced based therapeutic intervention.
