My compassionate, non-judgmental approach supports individuals, couples, families, and groups in achieving their goals and improving their well-being.
With a deep understanding of chronic illness, life transitions, child abuse, neglect, and family violence—gained through years in Child Protection—I guide clients toward healing and growth. Grounded in an Anti-Oppressive framework, I view this work as my soul’s purpose, striving to provide genuine care and expert guidance. Let’s work together to create a more peaceful, fulfilling life.
My approach combines a variety of effective therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Percussive Suggestion Technique (PSTEC). I specialize in treating anxiety in children (ages 8 and up), stress, depression, social anxiety, phobias, and relationship challenges.
