When we set out on life's journey we all have expectations of what life is going to give us and how life is going to turn out. We all have a sense of how life operates and what we need to do to get on in the world. However, as we move through life our initial views can be altered and our worldviews can be shaped unexpectedly leaving us at a loss. Does this resonate? Are you feeling like life looks different than you expected? Are you finding it difficult to engage in life in a meaningful way? Then it's important for you to know that you're not alone.

Working together you can expect a therapeutic approach that is sensitive to your experiences, your worldview and to what matters to you. In my practice I create a safe place for you to share your story, process that which has you feeling stuck so that you can engage in your optimal life.

I am a Registered Social Worker with more than 8 years of experience. I work with adults who are experiencing various stressors. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) / Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) and Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) among other approaches that can be woven together so that we can find what will work best for you. We can discuss this further at our initial session so you can decide what fits best.

I primarily work with clients on the following:

- Depression

- Anxiety (GAD, Panic Attacks, Social Anxiety, OCD, Phobias)

- Trauma, PTSD and C-PTSD

- Stress management

- Relationship and interpersonal conflicts

- Substance use

- Grief and loss

- Impostor syndrome

- Life transitions
