About My Clients

Are you feeling down, enraged, highly anxious, or unable to concentrate? Struggling with nightmares or flashbacks due to past trauma? Are you trying to break down barriers of what society tells you that you should be feeling or doing? You came to the right place! I am here to break down those social norms, challenge those irrational or distorted beliefs, minimize those nightmares to create a healthier happier you!

My Background and Approach

My first approach as a therapist is to build rapport and get to know you and what brought you here, which would include hearing about your life, your upbringing, support system, struggles and barriers you face day-to-day. I then apply a personalized approach therapeutically to your needs and treatment goals. Throughout the process I ensure that it is collaborative with you and recognize that you're in the drivers seat to the details of your own life experiences. I like to provide what occurs in the brain when we become depressed, anxious or have experienced trauma. We will check-in throughout this process to ensure that you are comfortable with the techniques we are utilizing and pivot where necessary.
