Your Mental Health Matters
Depression and Anxiety
Understanding Depression and Anxiety
Depression is often described as feeling low, sad, unmotivated, or disinterested in activities that once brought joy. Anxiety, on the other hand, may present as constant worry, racing thoughts, or a persistent sense of unease—sometimes felt physically as tension, restlessness, or a “fluttering” in the stomach.
What’s often harder to put into words is the deep mental and physical exhaustion that can come with both. It may feel like there’s no light at the end of the tunnel—a sense of hopelessness, isolation, or fear of what lies ahead. Simple tasks like going to the grocery store or making small talk can become overwhelming. Social interactions might feel draining, and withdrawing from loved ones can begin to feel like the only option.
If you're finding it harder to take care of yourself, complete daily tasks, or connect with others, you're not alone. These are valid experiences.
Mental Health Care
Comprehensive Mental Health Support
Mental health care is essential for navigating life’s challenges and maintaining emotional well-being. Whether you're facing daily stressors or more complex emotional struggles, support is available.
I provide care for a wide range of concerns, including:
Burnout and chronic stress
Depression, anxiety, and other mental health disorders
Grief and loss
Relationship and family conflicts
Low self-esteem, self-worth, and self-confidence
Difficulty managing negative emotions
No matter where you are on your mental health journey, you deserve support tailored to your needs.
Trauma and PTSD
Understanding Trauma and PTSD
Most people will experience some form of trauma at some point in their lives. Traumatic events can include:
The death of a loved one
A serious accident or life-threatening experience
Losing a job or personal stability
Physical or sexual abuse
Combat or military service
While these experiences can be deeply distressing, not all trauma leads to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Many individuals are able to process and recover from trauma over time and counseling. However, for some, the emotional impact becomes overwhelming and persistent.
If you find yourself constantly reliving the event, experiencing flashbacks triggered by everyday sights, sounds, or smells, or having frequent nightmares or a heightened sense of fear or alertness, it may be more than just a difficult memory—it could be PTSD.
How I Can Help
In my practice, I integrate evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Narrative Therapy to support a wide range of mental health concerns. With specialized training in trauma-focused therapy, I offer experienced care for individuals affected by combat-related trauma, abuse, and other distressing life events.
Together, we will:
Establish customized, effective coping strategies
Address and overcome emotional or psychological obstacles
Restore your confidence in managing everyday life
Foster a safe, non-judgmental environment for healing and personal growth
Cultivate healthier thought and behavioral patterns
Build a stronger sense of self and emotional resilience
When you're ready to take the next step, I’m here to support you.
