About My Clients
Are you always afraid an anxiety attack is right about to hit you? Have you been attacked with sudden anxiety countless times? I know exactly what you're going through: shortness of breath, sweating, racing thoughts, feelings of self loathing and helplessness. And you need relief NOW. Anxiety alongside depression can be terrifying and I don't want you to suffer through them anymore. EMDR, somatic relief and cognitive therapy can rapidly reduce these experiences and give your life back to you.
My Background and Approach
Starting my journey with the typical idealism of an aspiring therapist, I picked up a Master’s Degree in Clinical Social Work from Wurzweiller school of Social Work, garnered two social work licenses in two continents, and worked for multiple public and private agencies in two countries. I wasn't fulfilled. After almost 10 years working in the field, I was in a real dilemma. I had not come across any therapy modality that actually healed trauma, chronic anxiety or powerful stress! All I learned were ways to cope with it. I was considering dropping the whole field of mental health and pursuing something else which my heart wasn’t into. I was anxious and stressed…and here I am, supposed to be the therapist….. As if on cue, a friend of mine introduced me to EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). I was immediately skyrocketed to a whole new dimension of therapy disciplines that work. I'd love to share with you the relief and clarity that I've now shared with many others.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that everyone can change and grow at any point in their lives. Though I struggle with this as well, I don't believe there is a limit to human capacity. We develop mental health issues, not because we want to, rather because of circumstances beyond our control. The way we coped with it until now was the best we could have. It included feelings of anxiety, distress and depression as well. Through my own experience, I learned how to handle and decrease anxiety, depression and improve my relationships as well so that anxiety and the other feelings didn't have control over me. I have shared these tools with hundreds of people and I am looking forward to sharing them with you as well. I believe Abe Lincoln was one of the coolest individuals to ever walk the face of the earth and I love sharing nerdy oddball tidbits about him. I have a strange obsession with alligators and have dragged along my family of 9 to Florida just so that I can get to see them.
