In sessions, you can expect a burst of energy. We will translate...

I use a variety of therapeutic modalities in my practice, tailoring therapy to the individual client(s)...

Therapy is a great tool to explore how your past experiences and early relationships influence your current relationships, symptoms of anxiety, depression, and how you navigate and process feelings. I truly believe the relational component to therapy (relationship between therapist and patient) can bring to light reactions, feelings, and patterns that show up outside of the therapy space. With this, you can begin to gain insight into how these experiences make you feel and make changes that a...
