“Has anxiety hijacked your body or life? Are you tired of feeling anxious, edgy, overwhelmed, having anxiety attacks? Are fears keeping you stuck e.g., what if I fail? Is fear of being judged, rejected or not fitting in, holding you back? Is your inner critic, making your life miserable, feel like a bad person, & chopping down your self-esteem? Are you tired of blaming, doubting, or comparing yourself with others? Do you feel stuck in a toxic or co-dependent relationship? These alongside depression, low self-esteem, disconnection from emotions, & addictions/problematic use of alcohol/drugs are the primary areas I specialize in, I am one of few therapists with advanced training in Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP). ISTDP is evidence based, & highly effective in helping people resolve emotional difficulties that keep them stuck. With awareness that unique individual factors determine how problems affect a person, I provide a customized plan for each client.

Wouldn’t it be nice to resolve your difficulties & feel in control instead of anxiety & fears, having leverage & directing your actions and decisions? Instead of hiding, shrinking from the world, comparing yourself to others, will you have a peace of mind, feel in control, and march confidently towards your goals?
