My practice is deeply rooted in compassion and empathy, and I specialize in supporting individuals, couples, and families grappling with various challenges such as trauma, anxiety, panic disorder, OCD, depression, and eating disorders. Central to my approach is the integration of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). These proven techniques offer practical tools for managing difficult emotions, challenging negative thought patterns, and cultivating mindfulness and self-compassion. I also incorporate elements of humanistic and existential approaches.
