changes, irritability & depression to feel more confident, capable and in control through online therapy. I understand how overwhelming it can be to face these challenges alone and I provide a safe, non-judgmental space in therapy to support you.
First session
In the first session and throughout therapy, I strive to help you feel understood, accepted and supported. In the first session, we will explore the concerns that brought you to therapy as well as what you want to get out of therapy. Then moving forward, I will help you continue to process your feelings and stressful situations, gain clarity and offer practical skills, strategies, and knowledge that you can take away from sessions and use to address your current challenges and make positive changes.

I’m passionate about helping people break free from suffering, and I believe change is possible. You don’t have to stay stuck—let’s work together toward greater emotional well-being.

Ideal clients
My client's often feel stuck, anxious or worried. Perhaps exhausted and on edge, lacking confidence and finding it hard to be present for what matters most because of anxiety, stress, or depression. They want to feel better, more confident, improve their relationships and develop better solutions for how to cope with stress. Stress and anxiety disrupt your life and can show up at work, academically, in relationships or during a big life change. Let’s help you process what's happening, find solutions and relief, create more confidence and gain control in your life.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
My primary approach to therapy is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. With CBT, you gain knowledge & skills, learn strategies and get to practice different ways of thinking & reacting to situations that bring relief to negative thoughts, soothe painful emotions and help you feel more capable of handling whatever problems or stressors you may face, including difficult feelings of anxiety, worry or depression.
