The loss of a loved one, job changes, failing relationships, or an inescapable sense of dissatisfaction with our lives can make us feel pain, lose control and feel despair. These instances can also open the door to the exploration of our souls, and foster opportunities for personal growth and transformation.

Counseling provides a safe place to explore your heart. The therapeutic relationship can help you think through patterns and attitudes that keep you from living your life fully.

I work with individuals experiencing:

  • Pain due to life transitions, losses and grief.
  • Depression and anxiety.
  • Complex post traumatic stress (PTSD) due to sexual abuse, domestic violence, or other traumatic experiences.
  • Stress stemming from cross-cultural relationships and adjustments to a new country.
  • Issues around identity and purpose in life.

I use a feminist approach, rooted in existential therapy and psychoanalytical foundations. I am also trained in Lifespan Integration, and I am currently incorporating singing technique to the treatment of anxiety and trauma.
