Clinical Therapy Associate (Internship)

Global Award-Winning Anxiety Therapist and Coach, OCD and Phobia Slayer | I help individuals/couples/families activate their authentic selves

I wasn’t always this calm…
{gasp}
I became less anxious and more organized over years of self-education and resilience-building.

While I progressed as a therapist and coach, it occurred to me that other people with these same symptoms don't have to struggle with trial-and-error learning like I did.

So, I redirected my career from business development to psychology, and began to live my purpose as a resilience coach and therapist.

With over 15 years’ experience as a Registered Psychology Associate, Therapist, Coach, and Trainer, I have helped thousands of people maximize their authentic selves, balance their priorities, and overcome their anxiety with outstanding results.

I have worked with Fortune 100 companies including but not limited to: Abbott, Sheppard Pratt, Nationwide, Rite Aid, Raytheon, Booz Allen Hamilton Consulting etc.

My clients experience the following results:
✅	Improved self-confidence and feeling empowered to handle obstacles
✅	Enhanced stress management practices and exposure techniques that reduce the likelihood of anxiety taking over
✅	Better management of people, processes, and one's own life
