Therapist Overview
Do you feel like your emotions control too much of your life and feel powerless and/or desperate? Or that it’s difficult to achieve your ideal life or even improve your situation? I aim to give a safe and welcoming space for individuals to grow awareness and skills to better manage emotions, process trauma, take back control of their lives, and reach their goals. Partnering with a counselor to work through depression, anxiety, and intense urges can help by gaining much-needed support and understanding, increasing awareness and insight into our emotions, and forming a clearer path towards wellness and connection.
