Many people reach a point where past experiences, trauma, or life transitions feel too heavy to manage alone. In my practice, I offer a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space to explore emotional dysregulation, grief, and patterns shaped by difficult family dynamics. Together we work toward clarity, self-understanding, and meaningful change, helping you navigate life with balance. I bring a depth-oriented approach informed by trauma work, Jungian psychology, and decades of clinical experience. You’ll find me down to earth, easy to talk to, and committed to providing a confidential space in a realistic 90-minute timeframe.
I support people facing life’s challenges, whether anxiety, depression, addiction, family or relationship struggles, or simply feeling lost or uncertain about the future. I work with life transitions at any age, questions of meaning and purpose, grief, and the lasting effects of life’s pain and difficulties, helping you make sense of feeling overwhelmed.
If you catch yourself thinking, "If I didn’t have this problem, everything would be okay," it can be a sign that a different approach might help. Together, we can explore what feels stuck, understand your experience more fully, and begin finding ways to move forward. I invite you to reach out for a brief phone call to see what support could look like.
