Whether you are going through a difficult life transition or are just feeling uncertain of what to do next, extra support and understanding from a therapist can be a great place to start. Your attachment style and/or trauma can have a major impact on the relationships you have with yourself, your family, your friends, and your children. Trauma can have long-reaching effects that can be hard to recognize. It can be difficult to know where to start. When you can understand the “why,” of your thoughts and feelings, it can become the starting point for the change you want to see in your life.

I treat Anxiety, depression, lack of self-acceptance, and grief problems. I help with the management of anxiety symptoms and depression, helping you to develop coping skills to manage your every day. I help clients identify and challenge cognitive distortions and replace them with positive affirmations. I will teach some mindfulness meditation to help you when anxious & help you obtain a better understanding of your mental health to cope with your emotions.

If you feel depressed or overwhelmed by life and feel like you need to make a change but don’t know how, you’re not alone. I enjoy helping clients who are struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, grief and loss, adjustment issues, and life stress. I believe we can learn to solve our problems by exploring our “inner selves” and to accept and/or change our thoughts and actions. Therapy can help you become more self-aware and develop a better understanding of who you are and what you need. Overall, I hope to provide care to assist you in building a life worth living and to be "the main character in the story of your life."

Therapy is enabled by a safe and supportive space, which makes the exploration of the past and the present possible. In therapy, we reach insights, identify patterns, and process life’s transitions and relationships. I work with adults and couples who feel that the challenges they face are unnecessarily burdened by their past and unresolved experiences and relationships, and with those who seek to better understand themselves, their difficulties, their connections — and wish to work towards positive change.
