Life presents challenges that can create a cascade of negative thoughts and feelings. When we become absorbed in our negative thoughts and feelings, we become immersed in a world of anxiety and depression, and sometimes it's hard to find our way out of this space.

Life is full of challenges. While many of these challenges are part of the personal development and growth, others can generate stress, anxiety, and distress. It’s a relief to know that you don’t have to face all these difficulties alone, that most of these difficulties are treatable, and can even be cured especially when treated early enough.

I can help you align with your soul purpose in life, help you to become happy and healthy in many ways, help you through emotional difficulties, such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, past life regressions, self esteem problems, emotional blockages, spiritual misalignment, soul health, mental health, physical pain, sleep problems, self confidence, etc.

Taking the first step to confront challenging thoughts, emotions, and behaviors requires immense courage, and I commend you for embarking on this path toward healing and self-improvement. As a mental health professional, my goal is to provide you with a compassionate and non-judgmental space where you can explore your challenges and work toward resolution.

I admire you for being willing and open to look honestly at yourself, and for reaching out for professional support after you’ve tried to deal with things as best as you could on your own. I look forward to being part of your journey toward improving your self and your relationships!

“I can’t keep living this way, but I don’t know how to change.” Does this statement sound familiar to you? Once upon a time, I felt this way too. Therapy was my safe space to land, and now I hope to offer a safe space in return for the clients I work with. Together, we can work to discover your strengths, unpack your past experiences and, as a team, make a plan for the life you hope to build.

I understand that the decision to seek support can be daunting, and yet it is also a brave act that is an exercise of self-compassion and self-advocacy. It takes courage to turn towards our difficulties and evaluate our internal experiences in an effort to seek change. Your decision to be here and reading this is a clear indicator of such bravery, and something I encourage you to take pride in.

In our work together, we’ll cultivate relational awareness—an essential foundation for emotional resilience. My approach draws from Relational Therapy, EMDR, Mindfulness, Somatic Awareness, and Internal Family Systems (IFS), all grounded in deep compassion. Through these modalities, clients begin to experience more self-acceptance, clarity, and inner peace.
