People seek therapy for a variety of reasons including but not limited to anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, attention problems, panic attacks, grief/loss, unresolved family and relationship stressors, poor self esteem, and life stressors. See below for some examples of the type of therapy I provide.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, evidence-based approach that helps you understand how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected. If you struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, or self-doubt, CBT can provide tools to shift unhelpful thought patterns, reduce emotional distress, and build healthier coping strategies. In therapy, we’ll work together to challenge negative beliefs, develop new perspectives, and create meaningful change—so you can feel more in control of your mind and your life.
Anxiety
Is anxiety taking over your life? Does it feel like you can’t control it no matter how hard you try? Have you already tried therapy but found it ineffective? If this sounds like you, I’m confident I can help. My practice offers the most effective forms of treatment, to get the relief from anxiety that you deserve. When it comes to treating anxiety disorders, research shows that therapy is usually the most effective option. That’s because anxiety therapy – as opposed to anxiety medication – treats more than just symptoms to the problem.
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a highly effective, research-backed therapy designed to help people process and heal from distressing experiences, particularly trauma. Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR focuses on reprocessing painful memories so they no longer feel overwhelming or intrusive.
When we experience trauma, our brains sometimes struggle to process the event fully, leaving us stuck in distressing thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations. EMDR helps "unstick" these memories by using bilateral stimulation—such as guided eye movements, tapping, or sound—to activate the brain’s natural healing process. Over time, these memories become less distressing, allowing you to move forward with greater ease and resilience.
EMDR is especially effective for PTSD, anxiety, phobias, grief, and other emotional struggles. During sessions, you’ll work through difficult memories in a safe and structured way, gaining relief without having to repeatedly relive the trauma in detail.
If you feel stuck in the past or weighed down by painful experiences, EMDR can help you break free and reclaim your life.
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, or OCD, involves having obsessive thinking patterns that can include unwanted thoughts, images, or urges that make a person feel anxious or distressed.
Individuals who have OCD often have significant difficulty pushing away or ignoring these thoughts. Those with OCD also have compulsive behaviors which are an attempt to reverse the obsessive thoughts or urges by performing some sort of action.
Trauma and PTSD
Are You Carrying the Weight of Trauma? You Don’t Have to Do This Alone.
If the past still feels present—through anxiety, nightmares, or a sense of being on edge—know that healing is possible. PTSD can make the world feel unsafe, but with the right support, you can regain a sense of calm, control, and connection.
PTSD Can Show Up In Many Ways:
Feeling constantly on high alert or easily startled. Avoiding people, places, or situations that bring up painful memories. Nightmares, flashbacks, or intrusive though. Numbness, detachment, or difficulty trusting others. Struggles with sleep, focus, or irritability.
These feelings can be overwhelming, but they don’t have to define your life. Therapy can help you process trauma safely, reduce distressing symptoms, and rebuild a sense of peace.
Grief
Grief can be an overwhelming and isolating experience. Whether you're coping with the loss of a loved one, the end of a significant relationship, or any other form of deep emotional loss, it's important to remember that you don’t have to go through it alone. I provide a safe, supportive space for you to process your grief at your own pace.
