My Approach to Helping
Experiencing unexpected life challenges can lead us to feel stuck, overwhelmed, and hopeless. Not knowing how to navigate these challenges can make us feel even worse. I know that asking for help can feel scary. I also know first hand, that facing difficult times with the right supports and help in place, is easier than facing them alone. Whether you are struggling with intense emotions and thoughts, or it's a behavior that you can't seem to get under control, you do not have to navigate this alone. My passion is helping individuals, parents and families learn how to cope and manage more effectively, in order to achieve meaningful change today and hope for the future.
I am a registered social worker and a seasoned psychotherapist with over 10 years experience. I provide comprehensive mental health and addiction assessments, and evidence-based treatments for diagnosed disorders such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, borderline personality disorder and substance use dependence. I provide support and skills training for parents who feel like they're drowning, caring for a youth with mental health, substance use andor behavioral concerns.
If you are feeling overwhelmed, lost or alone, there's always a way forward. You do not have to face difficult times alone. I'd love to help.
