Individual
Therapy

I provide professional support to individuals aged 16 and older facing a range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, adjustment disorders, PTSD, bereavement, and life transitions. My objective is to create a compassionate and understanding environment as we collaboratively explore your thoughts and feelings. Together, we will navigate these challenges and work towards achieving your personal goals. 

Couples

I specialize in empowering couples to effectively navigate relationship challenges. I focus on enhancing communication, resolving conflicts, and building trust, offering non-judgmental and objective support throughout the process. Together, we can address conflicts, goals, life transitions and/or co-parenting, establishing a strong foundation for a healthier and more fulfilling relationship. Let us work collaboratively to deepen your connection and achieve clarity on your journey.

Family
Therapy

I offer Family Therapy with the goal of improving family dynamics, resolving conflicts, and fostering better understanding and communication within the family unit. I know how challenging family relationships can be, and I’m here to help navigate whether it’s working through disagreements or simply learning to listen to one another more effectively. My approach is all about creating a safe space where everyone feels heard and valued. Let’s work together to strengthen those bonds and build a healthier, happier family life.
