About My Clients

Do you find yourself constantly worrying? Avoiding places or people because of the "what ifs"? Feeling stuck? Struggling with self-love and self-confidence? Having difficulty with a life transition? Want to build a deeper connection with yourself and others? You are in the right place. I look forward to teaching you tools to take your life back.

My Background and Approach

I have worked in this field for 9 years in outpatient clinics, community settings, substance use rehabilitation programs, and hospitals. Through the years, I developed an integrated approach drawing from different frameworks in order to tailor effective treatments to each individual client. I am specialized in treating OCD, OC-Spectrum disorders and anxiety disorders, though I have experience and passion for treating depression, complex trauma, grief and life transitions, as well.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

My practice is centered around the idea that the most important relationship we have is with ourselves. It is crucial that we explore this relationship with authenticity, curiosity and compassion. You can expect my sessions to feel warm, welcoming, collaborative and creative. I work with you to build deeper insight into your current stressors or symptoms and to uncover the tools you need to move through them.
