Great to meet you!

I work with people who struggle with high anxiety, self esteem and self worth issues, people who grew up in an emotionally toxic environment.I have experience helping people who are or have been in a relationship with a narcissistic partner or who were part of an environment that made them feel suffocated and not being seen.I have experience treating bipolar disorder, eating disorders, obsessive compulsive disorder and other conditions.

My approach to therapy

My approach is psychoanalytic and psychodynamic, with a strong focus on relationships, identity, and recurring emotional patterns.

What you can expect from me

Living in an emotionally toxic environment can interrupt emotional growth and leave parts of the self feeling frozen. Therapy can help free the psyche from these patterns. Over time, resilience begins to grow, bringing a quiet strength that helps you face inner struggles with greater courage each day.
