Clinical psychologist providing compassionate, evidence-based psychotherapy to support clients experiencing stress, trauma, and emotional challenges. I offer a safe therapeutic space grounded in CBT, TFP, and integrative approaches, helping individuals build resilience, process difficult experiences, and move toward healing and personal growth.
About Me
I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist with extensive experience providing psychotherapy and psychological counseling. I support clients facing anxiety, stress, trauma, emotional difficulties, and life challenges through an integrative therapeutic approach that combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Transference-Focused Psychotherapy (TFP), Thought Field Therapy (TFT), and evidence-based trauma-informed interventions. My work spans private practice, hospital settings, and humanitarian organizations, where I have supported survivors of abuse, individuals affected by crisis, and youth and adults needing emotional and psychological care. I also provide clinical assessment, psychoeducation, and personalized treatment plans tailored to each client’s needs. I aim to create a safe, confidential space where clients feel understood, respected, and empowered to explore their emotions, strengthen resilience, and build healthier patterns in their lives.
