About

When life isn't going well, or you feel stuck, anxious, depressed or angry, therapy may help you move beyond patterns and circumstances that are causing distress. I work with complex trauma, PTSD, anxiety and addiction and see clients for a wide range of psychological disorders including codependency, depression, anxiety, and relationship issues.
