Professional statement

Do you find yourself ruminating and obsessing about intrusive thoughts? Do you often dwell on awkward social interactions and feel uncomfortable in your own skin? Anxiety and constant worry can can be exhausting and it can prevent us from living the life we want to live. If you're looking to find new ways to cope with your intrusive thoughts and tackle your anxiety, we may be a good match. Together we will work to understand your anxiety, calm your nervous system, and confront your fears, so you can live a more comfortable and fulfilling life.

I specialize in working with adults who struggle with social anxiety, general anxiety, panic disorder and OCD. I don't believe in a one size fit all approach. Instead, I focus on understanding you and your life circumstances, so we can find a path that will work for what you need. I will encourage you to face your avoidance, while simultaneously helping you build resilience and freedom.

Whether it's your first time in therapy or you've been therapist shopping, starting therapy can certainly be anxiety inducing itself. I offer a free 15 minute consultation, so please come and ask any questions or concerns (all is welcome). Give yourself an opportunity to see if we would be a good fit, no harm in trying. I look forward to hearing from you.
