family sessions

Family Sessions

Available for established patients with their families – including parents, siblings, partners, or close friends. Together, we set intentions for the session, and I help guide the conversation so everyone can share openly, exchange feedback respectfully, and leave with insight and practical next steps.

  • Anxiety disorders: Generalized anxiety, panic, social anxiety, illness anxiety
  • Gender dysphoria
