Feeling alone or disconnected despite being in a relationship or in a city of millions? Feeling unfulfilled despite having "it all" or professional success? The human experience is full of complexities and contradictions that can often disrupt our world and lead to suffering. In the midst of distress, seeking therapy is an act of courage and an investment in your wellbeing. Few things are as powerful as having a trusting and supportive environment in which you can share your inner world.
Therapy is a journey towards a life where you will feel connected and fulfilled. This may include changing toxic patterns, refining skills, and developing greater self-awareness in order to enhance the relationship you have with yourself. You are the driver of the process, as everyone has their own pace.
I am a psychotherapist with a wide array of experience treating depression, anxiety and relationship issues. A compassionate and trusting relationship is the basis of all of my therapeutic work. The lenses I use include culture, race, trauma, and spirituality. You are not alone.
