Sometimes life becomes unmanageable on our own and we have to reach out for help. I am here to help normalize therapy and the discomfort that comes along with it from an informal approach. I have worked in crisis management for the past 4 years working with individuals with a broad set of issues and different backgrounds. I specialize in working with individuals suffering from chronic anxiety, depression, complex trauma, emotional dysregulation, identity issues, addiction, LGBTQ+ issues, and everyday life stressors that can be unbearable.
I provide a holistic approach in my practice utilizing methods from multiple modalities such as ACT, DBT, CBT, narrative therapy, and psychodynamic therapy. I believe that it is crucial to look at things from a trauma informed perspective in all aspects while working with individuals from how their life is impacted from all systems.
