I have been a therapist for over 23 years. I accept clients from Headway and Alma. I recognized it is difficult to have an outsider involved in your issues but there is a time when we are unable to move forward on our own and that is time to seek treatment. My experience are with both children and adults. My goal as a therapist is to help the child or adult through their crisis while teaching coping skills to manage similar issues in the future. The approaches I used in treatment are cognitive behavioral, insight oriented and family systems. I have experience with separation and loss, trauma issues, PTSD, Depression and anxiety.

You don't want to feel beat down, let down, depressed, overwhelmed, out of control, broken or ashamed. But the daily experience of your life being undervalued by society on top of the difficulties of work, relationships, and personal struggles just seems like too much. You feel like relationships won't work, it's impossible to stop circumstances from getting you down, and you can't win for losing. You doubt who you really are. You question the strength within you, the courage you were born with, and the wisdom from those before you.
