About My Clients

If you are on this site, chances are you, or someone you love, is experiencing anxiety or depression and searching for help. Many people describe anxiety and depression as "a fog that won't go away," It is as though whatever you do, you can't shake the dread that is robbing you of your life. The effects of anxiety and depression often include; shame, self-doubt, guilt, poor health, addiction, inability to complete simple tasks and a lack of self-care and energy.

My Background and Approach

Working together, I can help you regain hope in your life. Clients comment at their first session that my style is interactive and very positive. I customize your therapy to meet your individual needs using a variety of techniques including: Active Listening, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and expressive modalities.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

We all have stress. For some, it is trauma or addiction and for others it is shame and fear. I believe you can overcome the negative effects of your past and live a happier, more fulfilling life. Don't let your past dictate your future!! Feel free to give me a call at 410-356-0796.
