My first goal as your therapist would be to create a safe and accepting atmosphere in which you can feel comfortable expressing your thoughts and feelings openly. I believe a warm and trusting therapeutic relationship is the most important part of creating real change. We will work together to explore your concerns, eliminate barriers, and identify your strengths to help you achieve your goals.
I use a combination of techniques derived from cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and mindfulness therapies to help you identify and achieve your goals. My areas of speciality include depression, anxiety and phobias, bipolar disorder, grief and loss, trauma, anger managment, coping skills, and relationship issues.
If you are feeling stuck, are tired of repeating unhealthy patterns in your life, or feel like you need a change and aren’t sure where to start, then therapy can be a useful way to explore these areas and work towards gaining more control over your life and your emotions.
