Each session with me is a chance to increase your capacity to feel emotions at a higher intensity, so you will eventually feel less overwhelmed. 

I am a psychotherapist with experience relating to mental health, including anxiety, depression, relational difficulties, grief/loss, and self-sabotaging behaviors. I treat the whole person, taking into account biologic, psychological, family, and environmental factors.
