I treat anxiety using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). With CBT, we challenge unhelpful thoughts that fuel anxiety and replace them with healthier ones. ACT helps you accept emotions and live according to your values, not fear. My trauma-informed approach creates a safe space to explore anxiety, build coping skills, and promote resilience for long-term well-being.

I help individuals navigate relationship challenges, including breakups, unhealthy patterns, and communication skills. Together, we’ll identify behaviors that may hinder fulfilling connections. I provide tools for healthy communication, rebuilding self-esteem, and setting boundaries. Whether healing from a breakup or improving current relationships, I offer guidance to support your growth and emotional well-being.

I specialize in helping individuals evaluate their relationships with substances, understand the addiction cycle, and develop effective coping skills. By recognizing triggers and the emotional factors behind substance use, we work together to build healthier strategies for managing stress and preventing relapse. My approach is trauma-informed, focusing on self-awareness, resilience, and long-term recovery, empowering you to break negative patterns and reclaim control over your life.

I am an expert in psychodynamic therapy, helping individuals explore the unconscious processes that shape their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. By examining early life experiences and relational patterns, I assist clients in gaining insight into their emotional struggles. This self-awareness fosters healing and growth, enabling clients to understand how the past influences their present. My approach promotes deep emotional exploration, leading to lasting change and improved relationships.
