Counseling Expertise
Braving the waves, managing your moods, healing the trauma
If you’re experiencing any of the challenges listed below, you deserve to seek out a therapist who specializes in mood disorders and trauma, and truly understands where you are in your treatment journey.
I have over 17 years of experience and an extensive background working with clients of all backgrounds.
My clients describe me as caring, professional, and easy to talk to. I’m dependable, empathetic, and motivated to go the extra mile with you.
It’s my goal to put you at ease, to highlight your strengths, and to provide tools you can use each and every day to help you navigate your unique situation. Along the way we will discuss and manage the stigma often associated with mental illness and affirm your identity beyond your diagnosis.
Depression Counseling
Sadness is one thing but depression is a deeper challenge. When depression gives way to that sunk, stuck feeling of hopelessness, worthlessness, restless or listlessness and you can't shake the sensations for weeks, it's time to acknowledge what's weighing you down. I'll be here to help you locate your anchor and learn your unique methods of lifting it, together.
Anxiety Management
Maybe you've felt restless, nervous, uncertain, or panicked. It may seem like your mind is choppy, unsettled, unfocused. Your anxiety is interfering with daily activities and may be out of proportion to your reality. Social anxiety disorder, phobias, separation anxiety disorder all fall under this category and there are a variety of successful treatments we can tailor to help your unique needs.
Bipolar Treatment
You've felt reckless highs, or deep lows - maybe both. Bipolar Disorder can manifest in a wide variety of forms. In general, it's clear that you're experiencing more than typical mood swings. Whether you've already received a diagnosis or you're seeking answers, I can help you chart a course back to your True North.
Trauma Therapy & PTSD Help
The waves may feel like they crash into you out of nowhere but it doesn't have to mean drowning. Trauma comes in many shapes and sizes - maybe it was a single event, or an ongoing stress, or something you may have overlooked like a surgery or cultural event. We'll focus on identifying, moving through, and creating tools to help you begin to surf the waves to shore.
