As a dedicated therapist, I specialize in supporting children, adolescents, individuals, and families as they navigate complex emotional and relational challenges. My clinical expertise includes working with depression, anxiety, trauma, and self-esteem concerns, as well as social anxiety, panic symptoms, mood fluctuations, attention and behavioral challenges, and interpersonal difficulties.
My approach is holistic, developmentally informed, and person-centered, with a focus on understanding each client’s unique experiences, strengths, and needs. I am especially passionate about helping children and adolescents build emotional awareness and coping skills, while also supporting adults and families in improving communication, strengthening relationships, and creating more connected, supportive home environments.
I integrate evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients develop practical tools for managing stress, regulating emotions, and responding more effectively to life’s challenges. In sessions, I strive to create a safe, supportive, and respectful space where clients of all ages can feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow.
Whether you are navigating trauma, obsessive-compulsive patterns, family conflict, or everyday stressors that feel overwhelming, I am committed to walking alongside you and your family in the healing process. My work is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and a strong belief in each person’s capacity for growth, resilience, and meaningful change.

I thoroughly enjoy talking with Evangleine. She lets me work through my thoughts and helps me with different techniques to assist with my overthinking and anxiety.
