As a licensed psychologist with over two decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through difficult life transitions and emotional struggles. My professional journey has been dedicated to helping clients navigate difficulties with mood, anxiety, relationship dynamics, career uncertainties, body image and self-esteem struggles, and past trauma issues. I have over 20 years of experience in treating eating disorders.
I approach therapy with deep compassion and a commitment to understanding each person's unique emotional landscape. I tend to draw from a variety of techniques, tailoring my approach to an individual's needs.
For example, sometimes individuals with depression or anxiety feel a constant weight on their mind and body. They might feel empty, exhausted, or overwhelmed. My goal is to help individuals identify "blind spots" that might be keeping them stuck, such as negative beliefs, coping skills, or patterns that are no longer working for them. My goal is to help them draw from their personal strengths so that they can break out of those cycles and gain trust in themselves to navigate life.
My practice centers on creating a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences, develop resilient coping strategies, and feel empowered toward meaningful personal growth.
