In my psychotherapy practice, I focus on helping individuals overcome a variety of challenges stemming from anxiety, depression, difficult life circumstances, or tough periods in their lives. I specialize in helping individuals through these emotions and experiences with care and understanding. My approach is rooted in psychoanalysis, which can be particularly beneficial for those with a history of trauma or anxiety. This method is also ideal for individuals who find it difficult to manage or understand their behaviors, as well as for those who have found other therapeutic approaches less effective in addressing their symptoms.

You are good enough, just as you are right now. Despite this truth, life can be difficult, painful, and just plain chaotic. Therapy can be a place of processing, healing, and discovering ourselves over again. It can be a place of forgiveness, acceptance, and learning that we are able to move forward with confidence in ourselves.
