Helping Adults Experiencing:
A constant sense of dread, irritability & “what if thoughts.
An emotional & physical response to a frightening or life threatening event.
A short-term, overactive response to pressure leading to depletion and emotional numbness.
A persistent feeling of sadness and a loss of interest in activities you once enjoyed.
Major, disruptive life changes whether planned or unexpected, positive or negative.
Pain after a significant loss, creating separation anxiety, or obsessing on the past.
Challenges with relationships, self-esteem, or the unique challenges faced by women such as Menopause, Postpartum depression or anxiety, or holding a family together while building a career.
How I Help:
My approach isn’t about fixing you because you are not broken. People are complicated and every situation is different so I combine specialized training in evidence-based techniques like CBT, EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, Polyvagal Theory, and Mindfulness Practices with insights drawn from education and experience in Depth Perspective (Jungian) Psychotherapy to create targeted therapy for every client. That means we don’t just manage symptoms, we integrate insight-driven exploration with tools that deliver real world results.
