What is your dream state like, are you having troubling dreams? Where is happiness at, why are you not content? What lies have you come to believe? Who told you that and why do you believe it to be true? Why do you face the same giants in your life over and over again? Why did you react like that, what did you hear them say? Do you feel estranged from others? How do you fit in and why? My approach is not only to explore what may be hidden in the subconscious, but to find correlations between interactions both with intimate relationships and casuals ones. I use questions as a probe and analysis as the lens to bring about inner knowledge and healing.

Psychotherapy, encompassing modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), offers a powerful and multifaceted process for addressing a wide range of mental health concerns beyond just depression.

CBT equips clients with practical tools to identify and modify unhelpful patterns, fostering healthier coping mechanisms and improved emotional regulation. EMDR, when appropriate, can address the impact of past experiences and traumas that may underlie present difficulties, facilitating emotional processing and reducing their lingering effects. This holistic process empowers individuals to gain self-awar
