Let's collaborate to develop strategies that work best for you, empowering you to navigate challenges.
What stands out about my therapeutic approach is that I combine deep expertise with a personalized, results-driven style. I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach—whether I’m working with an athlete under high performance pressure, a couple navigating intimacy challenges, or an individual seeking personal growth, I tailor my methods to their unique needs. I integrate evidence-based modalities such as CBT, mindfulness-based strategies, and performance psychology techniques, while also fostering a supportive and nonjudgmental environment. My clients often share that they appreciate my ability to balance compassion with accountability—helping them feel truly heard while also moving them toward their goals. The result? Clients gain clarity, confidence, and concrete tools they can apply immediately, both in their personal lives and, for athletes, in their sport.

Discovered by Dr. David Grand, PhD in 2003, Brainspotting is a proven effective trauma treatment. It can also be used to treat anxiety and depression. and can help with creative and athletic performance. This fairly new treatment was developed by referencing existing psychological and physiological treatments. It taps into the client’s innate wisdom in order to more quickly process and heal from trauma. The therapist supports the client by helping them be in tune with their body and finding what’s called a “brainspot.” A brainspot is an eye gaze that helps the client access the part of the brain that the trauma is held.
