She brings thirteen years of clinical experience and focuses on common life struggles like stress, anxiety, relationship strain, sleep difficulties, and self-esteem.

Therapeutic approaches and online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice hard thoughts and feelings while identifying personal values to guide action; it is often used for anxiety, motivation, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change patterns that get in the way of sleep, mood, or daily routines. Attachment-Based Therapy examines relationship patterns and early bonds to help people build healthier connection habits and address intimacy or family challenges.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they’ll choose techniques that fit the person’s needs and adjust the plan as progress is made.
