About

As a therapist, I aim to create a safe emotional space where you will feel increasingly comfortable expressing your feelings and thoughts. I imagine therapy as a journey, a process of transformation from a place of suffering to a place of healing and see my role as that of a fellow traveler and a guide who listens to your experience and helps you create your own story. Being able to find words to match your experience and have someone witness that moment is a deeply freeing process, that leads to symptom relief, greater self-awareness and a more meaningful life. I have worked for more than a decade in a variety of settings with adults from different walks of life. I specialize in depression, anxiety, and trauma. I also have extensive experience working with abuse, grief, academic difficulties, creative blocks, work conflicts, immigration challenges and health-related problems.
