How can you help?

I will help you by listening, really listening. My sessions are informative, I will help you understand why you may be feeling the way you are.  I will teach you ways to overcome those feelings using the latest psychotherapeutic tools and techniques. I have different techniques that help overcome anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, stress and trauma.

What can I expect from our first session?

Everyone is different and I’m guided by your emotional needs. I listen to what is happening in your life and how you would like that to change. By asking sensitive questions I will help you find some clarity about why you may be feeling like you do. Some people are nervous about starting therapy. There is nothing to worry about - my approach is really calming, gentle, and positive.  My aim is to help you feel better from the very first session.

The sessions are about 60 minutes.   

How much are the sessions?
