Description

Therapy can be an invaluable tool to support you in making decisions. As your therapist, I will be guided by what works best for you, whether that be exploring your inner world, developing coping skills, navigating relationships or addressing any other concerns.
I practice using a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and attachment theory, with an integrative, trauma informed approach. My areas of experience include working with individuals who struggle with depression, anxiety and emotional regulation. I also have a specific interest in working with men through various struggles.
