Specialties
I specialize in treating anxiety-related disorders, including OCD, using Exposure Response Prevention (ERP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based tools. My approach is both practical and empowering—I don’t just help you feel better, I teach you why things work so you can build lasting confidence and independence.
In our work together, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of your patterns and learn how to respond to challenges with clarity and skill. I’m not here to “fix” you—I’m here to walk alongside you as a supportive guide, helping you reclaim your life with tools that truly make a difference.
Depression & Mood Disorders
Are you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or weighed down by sadness? Maybe the things you once loved feel like a struggle, your sleep is off, or your energy has disappeared. If this sounds familiar, you may be experiencing clinical depression—and you're not alone.
​
In our work together, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you recognize and shift the automatic negative thoughts and mental filters that fuel depression. Many people with depression find themselves stuck in the past, replaying painful memories and filtering current experiences through old wounds. We’ll work to gently interrupt that cycle.
​
Once awareness is in place, I bring in mindfulness practices to help you stay present, reduce overwhelm, and make space for emotional shifts. Small, consistent changes over time can lead to lasting transformation.
We’ll also explore holistic supports like daily routines, movement, nourishment, and self-care—because healing the mind also means supporting the body. Together, we’ll create a path toward clarity, lightness, and a more balanced you.
Anxiety
Do you feel like something terrible is always just around the corner? Maybe your heart races, your chest tightens, and you feel overwhelmed by panic—without knowing why. If that sounds familiar, you may be struggling with anxiety or panic disorder—and you're not alone.
​
I specialize in Exposure Response Prevention (ERP), the leading treatment for anxiety-related disorders like OCD and panic. ERP helps you gradually face the thoughts and sensations that trigger fear, so your brain and body can learn a new response—one rooted in calm rather than avoidance.
​
As your symptoms begin to ease, we’ll integrate mindfulness tools like breathwork, somatic awareness, and meditation to support long-term healing. These practices help you reconnect with your body, stay present, and prevent anxiety from taking over again.
​
Our work is practical, compassionate, and collaborative. You’ll gain tools that make sense, learn why they work, and walk away feeling more confident, grounded, and in control of your life.
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
Do you find yourself grappling with intrusive and anxiety-provoking thoughts, leading you to engage in behaviors to alleviate or distract from these fears? Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is often misunderstood, with misconceptions that it solely revolves around orderliness or perfectionism. However, it encompasses various unwanted, persistent thoughts that induce severe anxiety or fear, spanning topics from harming others to questioning one's relationships or identity. These intrusive thoughts can cause significant stress, anxiety, and even depression, leading individuals to develop coping mechanisms known as compulsions. These may include avoidance of triggers, rituals or acts to alleviate distress, extensive research for reassurance, or engaging in mental compulsions. If these behaviors consume a substantial amount of time, seeking assessment for OCD is advisable. Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, a research-driven approach, is recognized as the most effective treatment for OCD. ERP involves confronting fears, gradually reducing anxiety, and ultimately eliminating compulsions, typically resulting in significant improvements within a relatively short timeframe of 3-9 weeks. While challenging, ERP offers a highly effective pathway to managing OCD symptoms.
Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy offers a powerful adjunct to traditional therapeutic modalities, providing a multifaceted approach to addressing mental health concerns such as anxiety and depression. By delving into the subconscious mind, hypnotherapy targets the root causes of negative thinking patterns that fuel anxiety and depression, facilitating profound shifts in perception and emotional resilience. Through tailored suggestions and guided imagery, individuals can reprogram detrimental behaviors and release ingrained habits that perpetuate their distress, paving the way for the cultivation of healthier habits and coping mechanisms. Moreover, hypnotherapy fosters a deep sense of self-awareness and empowerment, bolstering self-confidence and self-esteem. When integrated with conventional therapy techniques, hypnotherapy synergistically enhances treatment outcomes, offering a holistic pathway to lasting mental well-being. By harnessing the power of the mind, hypnotherapy empowers individuals to overcome obstacles, transform their lives, and thrive.
