As a compassionate and experienced clinician, I specialize in helping individuals navigate the complexities of anxiety, depression, and grief. Through a combination of evidence-based therapies and empathetic support, I work collaboratively with my clients to develop effective coping strategies and promote lasting healing. I understand that these challenges can be overwhelming, and I am committed to creating a safe and supportive space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered. Whether you're struggling with persistent worry, feelings of sadness, or the loss of a loved one, I am here to guide you on your journey towards emotional well-being.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
The first session will be several background questions to help me formulate an image of how you became the person you are today. Our pasts shape and mold us into our present beings and understanding where you came from and a historical overview of your past will help me better understand you and provide you the best therapy sessions possible.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am skilled at actively listening and understanding my clients' unique perspectives, creating a safe and supportive space for them to express themselves openly. I strive to create a friendly and welcoming atmosphere that helps clients feel at ease and build trust.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Through an understanding of how thoughts, feelings, and actions are interconnected, individuals can learn to challenge unhelpful thinking and develop healthier coping mechanisms. CBT is effective for a wide range of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, PTSD, and eating disorders. This is the primary methodology I use during sessions.
EMDR
a form of psychotherapy that helps people heal from the emotional distress caused by traumatic life experiences. During EMDR therapy, clients focus on disturbing memories while simultaneously engaging in bilateral stimulation, such as eye movements or tapping. This process helps the brain process and integrate traumatic memories, reducing their emotional impact and alleviating symptoms of PTSD and other trauma-related disorders.
