Specialization in Anxiety, Compulsions, Trauma, and Neglect

Trauma
Together, we'll create a safe and supportive environment to process past experiences and begin the healing journey.
Neglect
We'll explore the impact of neglect on your life and work on building a stronger sense of self-worth and self-compassion.
Can Virtual Therapy Help As Well As In-Person Sessions?
Absolutely! Virtual therapy has proven to be an effective alternative to in-person sessions for many individuals. While the format is different, you'll receive the same level of personalized care, expertise, and support through secure video meetings.
Here's Why Virtual Therapy Can Work For Addictions And Compulsions:
Convenience
Access counseling from a location that's comfortable and private, reducing the need to travel and making it easier to fit into your schedule.
Flexibility
Virtual therapy accommodates busy schedules or those who live in remote areas with limited access to specialized mental health services.
Therapeutic alliance
Virtual therapy can still foster a strong therapeutic alliance between you and your therapist, which is essential for successful therapeutic outcomes.
It's important to choose the therapy format that works best for your specific needs and preferences. Both virtual and in-person therapy can provide the guidance, support, and tools necessary for overcoming addictions and compulsions.

How Individual Therapy Works
In individual therapy, I work with you to uncover the root causes of your distress, exploring past wounds and experiences that may be holding you back. Together, we'll develop strategies to help you build self-awareness, manage impulsive and compulsive behaviors, and cultivate self-compassion. By understanding and addressing the underlying issues, you can begin to heal and create positive change in your life.
My therapeutic approach is both empathetic and collaborative. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your emotions and behaviors openly. By combining serious self-exploration with moments of lightheartedness, we'll work to help you achieve meaningful growth and healing whether this is your first time in therapy or you’re truly ready to learn the lessons you need to learn — all while also finding joy along the way.
