I specialize in helping individuals soothe pain, anxiety, and stress as a residual from chronic illness or injury. Those diagnosed with chronic illness / chronic pain often have anxiety and depression surrounding their illness. This can contribute to sleepless nights, shameful feelings, self-blame, fear of social situations, isolation, and anger. Within our partnership we will create a new awareness and understanding of the impact your illness has had on your quality of life and how this has created your current internal narrative.

I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families. I strongly believe therapy is an important asset in life where one is able to talk about life challenges and work on solutions that allow individuals to be the best version of themselves. My goal is to create a natural experience by nurturing a safe and welcoming environment, establishing trusting relationships, and promoting a judgement free zone where one can express themselves freely, overcome their challenges, and find balance in their lives. I believe in the philosophy “give yourself space to evolve” (Krista Aoki).

I approach therapy by emphasizing education and collaboration. Understanding your condition can empower you to manage your symptoms more effectively. Having gone through OCD treatment myself, I bring warmth and empathy to our sessions. My personal journey through therapy inspired me to become a therapist, realizing how much my quality of life could improve. Recognizing patterns of anxiety in my family further fueled my desire to be a source of healing. At NOCD, my team and I specialize in providing evidence-based treatment for people with OCD.
