about
Struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, loss, life transitions or other life challenges? Take the first step towards healing through evidence-based strategies, and the deep work of core emotional processing. My therapeutic approach is person-centered, warm, compassionate, and uniquely understanding. During my career, I have been profoundly honoured to witness and help guide my clients to not only heal, but thrive and grow into their authentic selves.
*In addition to treating most mental health concerns, I also specialize in the treatment of anxiety and panic disorders. The clinical modalities I draw on to create a tailored treatment plan for each individual include: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy, and Mindfulness.
To begin the transformational process of therapy and discover freedom from emotional pain, call, text or email for an appointment today.
