About Me

If you are feeling stuck or overwhelmed, I offer a supportive space. I specialise in helping individuals navigate anxiety, OCD, and trauma. I understand how these challenges can impact your daily life. Together, we can gently apply evidence-based approaches like ERP, CBT, ACT and Mindfulness. This can help you find clarity and move towards a more fulfilled life. My aim is to help you build practical tools for lasting well-being.

Approach

When overwhelm crowds your day, therapy here moves from understanding to practical steps that feel manageable. Sessions in my San Diego office or online are steady and paced to your tolerance, with simple agendas and small, guided experiments between meetings. We use short, measurable practices—moment-to-moment grounding, repeated real-life exposures, and gentle cognitive work—to shift patterns while keeping you grounded and in control. People seeking steady, hands-on change tend to find this way of working helpful.
