Introduction

Have you found yourself wondering if the life you’re living matches the dreams you had while growing up? Were you on track to creating the future you imagined, only to be blindsided by life’s unexpected challenges? Do overwhelming emotions arise at the worst times, creating tension in your relationships? Or perhaps you struggle to feel comfortable and confident in social settings, held back by past traumas that keep you confined to your "safe place." If any of this resonates, know that there is hope—and a path forward. Together, we’ll explore what a life worth living means to you. I’ll guide you in discovering and practicing new coping strategies, learning to navigate and regulate your emotions, and gaining control over intrusive thoughts. Our work will help you reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, and more, empowering you to build a life aligned with your goals and values. My approach prioritizes building a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship as the foundation for growth. I integrate evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Exposure Therapy, and Mindfulness techniques. I firmly believe that every individual has the potential to overcome life’s obstacles and create a meaningful, fulfilling life. Let’s work together to turn challenges into opportunities for growth and healing.
