Hello there!

Are you longing for relief from the weight of depression or the grip of anxiety? Perhaps you find yourself at a crossroads, feeling lost or stuck in life's labyrinth. Know that your journey matters, and I'm here to guide you through it.

I specialize in supporting individuals facing the challenges of depression and anxiety. I offer a compassionate approach to help you on your path to healing. I also work with those who feel adrift, helping them rediscover their purpose and direction.

My therapeutic approach is as unique as you and your story (we are all different and unique in our own ways after all!). Our sessions will be dynamic and engaging. Bring a pen and notebook, as we'll co-create strategies and insights to propel you toward healing and growth.

With a background that includes EMDR therapy training, Certified Breath Coach, and expertise in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I bring a diverse toolbox to our partnership. Your well-being is my priority, and together, we'll illuminate your path toward a brighter, more fulfilling life.

I hope you've caught a glimpse of the transformative journey we can embark on together. When you're ready, take that courageous step forward to a life of greater meaning and well-being by reaching out to me.

Let's embark on a journey for a brighter tomorrow together!
