With the help of evidence-based strategies, your journey toward your mental health goals becomes smoother. We’ll use data as a compass and our route will be tailored to be effective and precise. You can expect substantial progress in just 4 to 6 sessions - tangible progress at a swift pace!

The Approach

I believe that there should be no trade secrets. Along the journey of empowering you to overcome your challenges and reach your full potential, I train you to become your own therapist.

Former Patient

“There were so many things that I was able to talk about in a judgment free zone. I am beyond grateful I was able to find Jay as a therapist and get the help that I needed. The tools and techniques that I have learned will benefit me throughout my whole lifetime. I'm excited and ready to start this new chapter and I could not have done it without the help, encouragement and help by my wonderful therapist Jay, 10/10 will always recommend.”

Former Patient

“I feel comforted by the fact that I’m in a place where I can take the things I’ve been working on the past few months into the future. I know it won’t always be easy, but my entire experience with therapy this time has set me up for dealing with anything that may rear its head in the future.”
