How I Can Help:
Offering a supportive and non-judgmental space is my top priority. I take into account that therapy can feel daunting and aim to make it into a positive and meaningful experience. I have worked with many adolescents and adults who struggle with anxiety and depressive symptoms as well as traumatic stress, grief, relationship issues, and challenging life transitions. I integrate various treatment approaches including EMDR, CBT, IFS, and mindfulness. My approach is both interactive and collaborative and I truly love the work that I do.
