Great to meet you!

Taking the first step towards change is an important but often times difficult decision to make. It is important to recognize this and give ourselves praise for the courage this first step demands. As a therapist, I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety and depression who are seeking to navigate this period of their lives. I offer a safe and non-judgmental space where we can collaborate in creating the goals you wish to achieve. When you are ready to reach out, I will be happy to join you on this journey.

My approach to therapy

As a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist (CBT), I work with individuals in identifying patterns of thinking that might be creating or sustaining their symptoms and provide guidance on everyday tools that you can implement to gain better control of your emotions and reactions. I will tailor this approach to suit your individual needs and feedback so that you can successfully achieve your goals.

What you can expect from me

In our first session we will begin by discussing what led to you seeking support and what you hope to gain from therapy. This will also be a great opportunity for you to ask questions on my approach and any other concerns you might have. During this first session we will begin identifying goals you want to set that we can use to guide our sessions.
