Description (2950 characters max)
I provide compassionate, insight-oriented therapy for individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, identity shifts, and major life transitions. My approach is relational, psychodynamic, and attachment-based, grounded in the belief that healing happens when people feel safe enough to be fully seen, heard, and understood.
I work with adults, transitional aged youth, caregivers, and individuals who have spent much of their lives taking care of others while losing connection with themselves. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling emotionally overwhelmed, stuck in painful patterns, struggling with self-worth, recovering from narcissistic or emotionally harmful relationships, or carrying unresolved grief and trauma. Others may appear highly capable on the outside while privately battling anxiety, burnout, loneliness, or a persistent sense that something feels missing.
In our work together, I help clients slow down and explore what may be happening beneath the surface. Therapy is not about judgment, quick fixes, or having all the right words. It is a collaborative process rooted in curiosity, reflection, and trust. Together, we look at patterns, relationships, emotional wounds, and protective strategies with compassion rather than shame.
I strive to create a warm, grounded space where clients can show up honestly, including the parts of themselves they may have learned to hide. I believe meaningful change happens through connection, self-awareness, and developing a more compassionate relationship with yourself. Clients often leave therapy feeling more emotionally connected, more confident in setting boundaries, more trusting of themselves, and more hopeful about their future.
I welcome individuals from diverse backgrounds, identities, and relationship structures, including those in non-traditional relationships. Humor, authenticity, and humanity are always welcome in the room.
