I work collaboratively with clients to identify and explore thought and behavioral patterns that are contributing to emotional distress and overall dissatisfaction in life. I provide a safe, calm, and contained space in which clients can feel comfortable exploring the issues that have brought them to therapy. I'm open-minded, objective, and non-judgemental, so you can feel comfortable, heard, and understood.
I have extensive experience treating a variety of mental health issues, including anxiety disorders, mood disorders, trauma, addiction, and dual-diagnosis. I'm certified in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), a treatment model that addresses complex trauma as well as adverse life experiences.
I understand the importance of a strong therapeutic relationship, as research indicates it is the biggest predictor of success in therapy. My genuine and empathic nature allows me to connect with different personality types and tailor my therapeutic approach to you, based on your specific treatment needs. Life can be tricky. Let me help you.
