Great to meet you!

Problems with stress can contribute to poor physical and mental health. Stress places a heavy burden on individuals, families and community at large. It is estimated that as many as 1 in 6 people, at any point in time, suffer from a diagnosed condition such as depression or anxiety. If you are struggling with depression or anxiety you are not alone and there is help. Please allow me to support you through this difficult time. My clients appreciate my non-judgmental approach and caring attitude.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I approach the process of therapy through an integrative eclectic way. I believe that it is important to establish a strong therapeutic relationship with actively engagement while managing expectations as this makes the experience more effective and rewarding.

What you can expect from our first session

Through therapy, it is my hope to empower you to take charge of your life, improve your relationship, and obtain personal and professional success as well as gain peace of mind.
