About

I became a therapist after working as a nurse and seeing how many people struggled emotionally and mentally. I specialize in adolescents, young adults, women, and couples.

I use CBT, DBT, EMDR, IFS, and mindfulness-based tools, with experience in depression, anxiety, ADHD, autism, trauma, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, and conduct disorder.
