I'm dedicated to guiding individuals through mental health challenges like depression, anxiety, addiction, trauma, and existential crises. Using evidence-based therapies, including EMDR, I empower clients to regain control and find inner peace. With a focus on empathy and collaboration, I offer personalized support to foster lasting recovery and meaning in life. Let's embark on a journey towards healing and transformation together.
Approach: My therapeutic approach is deeply rooted in the belief that each person is inherently an authority on their own life and possesses the capacity for self-discovery and growth. Drawing from a combination of evidence-based therapies and personalized interventions, I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each client.
I work with individuals from all walks of life who are seeking support for a variety of concerns, including anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, existential crises, and addiction. Whether you’re struggling with day-to-day stressors or searching for deeper meaning and direction, I’m here to support you on your journey towards self-discovery.
