About My Clients

Life can be complicated and sometimes you may feel lost and discourage. Depression, anxiety and PTSD can come to your life without any invitation. You deserve to feel fulfilled with the knowledge that tomorrow can be a better day. You deserve to heal from your past experiences and cope with them in a way that will allow you to move forward.

My Background and Approach

I would like to share more about my experiences and education. I graduated from my doctorate degree in 1999, and during my studies I felt the need to learn more about mood disorders and PTSD. I specialized, during my master’s degree, on PTSD. To be specific, I specialized on helping Sexual Abuse Victims, and have worked with clients with PTSD from very early in my career. As well as working with PTSD, I have experience working with other diagnosis such as anxiety disorders (including OCD, social phobia, panic disorder, GAD), depression, bipolar disorders and many others. I had work with children, adolescent and adults. I have been trained in the following treatment approaches: Behavioral Approach (AKA Skinner approach), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Emotional Focused Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Sand Therapy, Strength Based therapy, Family System therapy and MBCT.
