I specialize in trauma, anxiety, emotional dysregulation, relational issues, and grief and loss. Unlike many therapists I don’t just want to listen but help get to the root cause of what is making life difficult. One way I do that is by helping you understand your emotions and working on underlying self-worth issues. Most of our problems stem from denying our real feelings which leads to core social, emotional, and spiritual needs that go unmet. I truly believe that identifying these needs and acting on them is the key to individual happiness and fulfilling relationships. Our past experiences, particularly those from childhood, can profoundly shape how we see ourselves and connect with others. Unresolved pain from the past can lead to feelings of inadequacy, fear, or disconnection. I take a compassionate and collaborative approach to help you explore these patterns and understand their impact on your life today. In a nutshell, I don’t just want to help you find ways to manage your symptoms but want to help you heal and see them go away. Many times the root cause of our issues is related to self-worth and unresolved emotions from our past. I genuinely love people and very committed to practice what I preach and to help you truly heal and move forward.
