Areas of Specialization: Anxiety & Emotional Regulation: Helping you understand the origins of persistent worry and developing the internal resources to manage intense emotional states.

Climate-Related Grief & Eco-Anxiety: Providing a dedicated space to process the profound emotional impact of the environmental crisis and global uncertainty.
