Anxiety and stress have become all too common, but they don't have to control your life. I specialize in treating anxiety disorders like chronic worry, panic disorder, social anxiety, and health anxiety. Using proven CBT and mindfulness techniques, we'll work together to understand your anxiety, develop effective coping skills, and create a path towards a calmer, more fulfilling life.

DEPRESSION

Living with depression can be incredibly challenging, but there is hope. I offer a compassionate space to explore your experiences and develop strategies for managing depression. Together, we'll use proven techniques like CBT and mindfulness to understand the root of your depression, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and build resilience. You don't have to walk this path alone – reach out today and let's start your journey towards healing.

MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH

If you're navigating the challenges of perinatal mood or anxiety disorders, or simply need support during this major life transition, I'm here to offer a safe and understanding space. Together, we'll explore any negative thoughts or behaviors, prioritize self-care, strengthen your coping skills, and build a support network. We can also process any grief or trauma related to pregnancy or birth, and help you find balance in motherhood. I understand the demands of new parenthood, so feel free to bring your baby to sessions or opt for phone/video calls for your convenience.

RELATIONSHIPS

Our connections with others – family, friends, partners – deeply shape our lives. When these relationships are strained or absent, it's natural to feel the impact on our emotional well-being. I specialize in helping individuals navigate relationship challenges using a compassionate, attachment-focused approach.

Together, we can:

  • Explore your unique attachment style and how it influences your interactions.

  • Identify and break free from negative patterns that cause distress.

  • Cultivate new ways of relating and connecting, fostering deeper and more fulfilling relationships.

My passion is to provide a safe and supportive space for parents to explore their experiences, develop effective strategies, and cultivate a deeper connection with their children. We'll work together to address stress, prioritize self-care, and navigate any past experiences that may be impacting your parenting journey. My approach is rooted in compassion, respect, and a deep belief in your innate wisdom as a parent.
