We find ourselves grappling with feelings of emptiness, anxiety, and a sense of purposelessness, while our relationships remain shallow, leaving us increasingly isolated. In search of relief, we resort to negative coping mechanisms, only to find ourselves feeling more alone and disconnected. It’s natural to wonder if this is all life has to offer.
As a team of dedicated psychotherapists, we are committed to supporting individuals, couples, and families as they navigate major life transitions. We reject the notion of inherent brokenness, seeing instead an opportunity for care and personal growth, rooted in our innate resilience.
With years of experience and training in various therapeutic modalities, we advocate for a collaborative exploration of these challenges. Together, we believe you can cultivate a beautiful and fulfilling life.
Intense emotions flood you, confuse you, anger and sadness invade you, and you are left cut off from the world.
.Due to this pain, you react, and then you regret it. You feel like you’re running from yourself, and things from childhood are catching up to you. You might not have found the tools to face it.
As a therapist, I don’t believe that we are broken and in need of fixing; we are hurt and in need of care. to learn and grow. I believe we all have the built-in resilience and capacity to overcome these challenges; let's find them together.
Major life events can evoke different emotions: excitement, sadness, fear, and uncertainty, it can be overwhelming.
I thrive in helping individuals and couples process, understand and adjust to life events. It can be challenging to say out loud why this place may not feel completely like home or why your children may feel very different from you. I provide deep compassion, understanding and empathy. I hold a special interest in working with immigrant populations. I think all of us can have the opportunity to understand motives and transform patterns that allow us to grow emotionally – in a safe space. I would like to collaborate with you on this self-discovery journey.
Family challenges can be exhausting and overwhelming.
You may feel hopeless after constantly trying to find a solution to your struggles. Anxiety, ADHD, oppositional defiant disorder, and mood disorders have an impact not only on the individual but also on the family system. For over 25 years, I have helped families find their unique path toward healing by providing child, individual, and family therapy sessions using a holistic, client-based approach. This involves creating a warm, caring, non-judgemental, and confidential environment. My goal is to build a therapeutic alliance that will empower you and your family to face daily life challenges with healthier coping strategies.
You walk through life feeling empty and lacking purpose and meaning.
You dabble in negative coping mechanisms to find momentary relief. As a psychotherapist, I am passionate about helping individuals and couples reclaim their lives. Tough childhood experiences, mood disorders, and self-sabotaging behaviors can all be overcome. Over my 15 years of practice, I have specialized in working through these challenging life experiences and have accompanied my clients to find joy, fulfillment, and meaning in their journey.
Your mind does not stop racing; you hold on to a thousand catastrophic scenarios; your heart pumps; and your hand's sweat.
You may dismiss it as nothing more than stress. I have not only learned about anxiety theoretically, but I have lived with it and grown from it. Through the safe, welcoming atmosphere we build together, we will explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors as we work to help strengthen yourself and your relationships.
