Let me help untangle the emotions and heal the pain. My job is to listen and find out gradually where the wound is - and then heal it. You don't have to live with the pain- let's work on it together.

Depression can leave you feeling like even the simplest tasks are impossible. Overtime you can start feeling guilt or shame about how hard life feels for you and isolate yourself. You're not alone in how you feel and you don't have to go through this by yourself! Through CBT, behavioral activation, and a huge does of empathy, you can start feeling like yourself again. Therapy is a safe space to express and feel your emotions and find accountability for moving towards your goals.

I utilize a cognitive-behavioral therapy approach that focuses on the thought patterns that keep clients stuck in their depression. Many times we get trapped into thinking there is no hope. Thus in therapy I offer my clients empowering tools that motivate them to believe and have faith in themselves, accomplish their goals and desires, and have better relationships with the people in their lives that support them.
