Areas of focus

What we can work on

Sessions are open to individuals, couples and families. The most common themes:

  • Anxiety, overthinking and emotional overwhelm
  • Self-confidence, self-worth and personal boundaries
  • Marriage, relationship and family challenges
  • Parenting and communication within the family
  • Emotional recovery after difficult experiences
  • Trauma awareness and the impact of past experiences
  • Identity, belonging, immigration and life transitions
  • Repeated emotional and relationship patterns
  • Personal growth, emotional resilience and inner balance

My approach

Guided by the RAMA METHOD™

Recognize

Notice the patterns in your emotions, thoughts, reactions and relationships that keep repeating.

Analyze

Understand where those patterns come from, and how they affect your life and relationships today.

Modify

Change unhelpful thoughts and responses, using practical tools drawn from CBT.

Anchor

Anchor healthier habits, boundaries and emotional tools, so the change holds in daily life.

I draw on techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and trauma-focused approaches, within a clear four-step path, at your pace.
