Are you experiencing anxiety, trauma, relationship conflicts, or feeling overwhelmed? I'm here to help you retrain your brain to become a source of comfort and strength. By reducing stress, you'll be able to channel your energy toward what truly matters to you. Using evidence-based techniques, I provide my clients with practical tools and strategies to make meaningful progress. I offer comprehensive anxiety support, techniques for improving couples communication, and brief, targeted treatment approaches for trauma. I work with individuals from diverse backgrounds in a welcoming, non-judgmental environment. Clients describe me as a compassionate and attentive listener who creates a comfortable space for growth. My approach incorporates mindfulness practices, an area where I have extensive experience.

Treatment Approach

  • Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) A trauma-focused therapy that uses eye movements and imagery to help the brain reframe distressing memories. It often leads to quicker relief from symptoms compared to traditional talk therapy.
  • Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) Helps people accept difficult thoughts and feelings instead of fighting them, while committing to actions that reflect their values. It blends mindfulness with practical behavior strategies.
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
  • Gottman Method Couples Therapy Based on decades of research, this method gives couples tools to improve communication, manage conflict, and strengthen intimacy.
