A psychotherapist office in Durham that specializes in different therapies for maintaining mental well-being.

Anxiety and Stress

Anxiety disorders are a group of mental health conditions characterized by excessive and persistent feelings of fear, worry, or apprehension. Individuals with anxiety disorders often experience heightened levels of stress and may find it challenging to control or manage their anxious thoughts and feelings. These disorders can interfere with daily life, impacting various aspects such as work, relationships, and overall well-being.

I provide a safe space to unravel the complexities of anxiety, offering personalized strategies to regain control and find peace within.

Depression

What is Depression?

Depression is a mental disorder characterized by intense sadness, loneliness, sleep and appetite disturbance, difficulty concentrating and making decisions, low energy and motivation and feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, and suicidality.

Depression is not a simple momentary indisposition and should not be confused with moments when we are just anxious or sad due to some passing events. Depression must be adequately understood and treated seriously by those close to those who suffer from this disorder.

With personalized therapeutic interventions, we'll uncover the strength within you to overcome the weight of depression and foster a renewed sense of purpose.

Addiction Problems

Addiction can exert a powerful grip on individuals, impacting not only their physical health but also their mental and emotional well-being.

I provide a supportive space to explore the roots of addiction, understand triggers, and develop effective coping mechanisms. Through evidence-based interventions and personalized strategies, psychotherapy empowers individuals to break free from the cycle of substance or behavioral dependence.

Emotional Dysregulation

Emotional dysregulation, marked by intense and unpredictable emotional responses, can disrupt daily life and strain relationships.

I offer a safe and empathetic space to explore the variety of emotional challenges, fostering self-awareness and insight. Through specific therapeutic techniques, I help individuals learn to identify, understand, and regulate their emotions effectively.

Chronic Pain

Specialized therapeutic approach to address the intricate connection between mind and body offering a supportive space to explore and manage the emotional aspects of persistent pain. Through empathetic guidance and evidence-based techniques, discover new coping strategies, foster resilience, and embark on a journey towards lasting well-being. Break free from the grip of chronic pain, and let psychotherapy pave the way for a more fulfilling and empowered life.

Relationship Problems

There are many challenges in close and intimate relationships because each individual comes with a different emotional burden or behavior and attachment patterns. There will also be difficult moments that will challenge people to transform, evolve and be aware of their limitations. Therapy sessions try to clarify dysfunctions and the causes of the impasse in which the individuals finds themselves.

My approach in relationship issues and couple distress is centered on Interpersonal Therapy and aims to decipher the mechanisms of love based on the development of attachment relationships.
