Introduction

Take Back Control of Your Thoughts and Emotions Has your anxiety become overwhelming, especially in the wake of the pandemic? The uncertainty and challenges we've all faced have placed our coping mechanisms under immense pressure. Many of us are still navigating transitions and unknowns, leading to feelings of discomfort and worry that may have once felt manageable. If you’re struggling with anxiety or depression, know that there is a way to regain control. As an experienced clinician, I am committed to helping my clients reclaim their sense of well-being by addressing the negative thoughts and behaviors that often feel so powerful. Together, we will work on shifting these thought patterns to more positive, empowering ones. My approach is centered on providing psychoeducation and proven strategies to help you confidently work through anxiety and depression. I specialize in working with children, adults, groups, and families dealing with anxiety, depression, conflict resolution, anger management, social skills difficulties, grief, self-harm, and behavioral challenges. My practice incorporates various evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Positive Psychology, Client-Centered Therapy, and mindfulness techniques. If you’re ready to take the first step toward healing, I invite you to reach out for a complimentary 20-minute consultation. Let’s explore how I can support you on this journey. I look forward to speaking with you.
