Sometimes the hardest part isn't knowing that something is wrong; it's understanding why you keep finding yourself in the same place. You may look like you're coping on the outside while feeling exhausted, disconnected, or stuck on the inside. Maybe anxiety has become your constant companion, relationships keep following familiar patterns, you're carrying the weight of past experiences, or you're navigating a life transition that has left you questioning who you are. Therapy with me isn't about fixing you because I don't believe you're broken. It's about making sense of your experiences, understanding the patterns.

We all face challenges in life. Whether it be feeling emotionally down, or anxious, or within our close personal relationships or our career. I believe that most people in these situations have a sense that something isn't right for them, but feel stuck on what to do about it. "I'm not totally happy in my relationship, but I love this person and want to make it work", "I'm unhappy at work, but I don't know what steps I can take to change things". People want clarity, my job is to work with them to find it.

I work with adults who may appear to be coping externally but feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected internally. Many are navigating ADHD or neurodivergence, identity, queerness, cultural experiences, relationship patterns, burnout, or life transitions. My approach is trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and neuro-affirming, integrating CBT, ACT, IFS parts work, attachment-based therapy, and practical ADHD coaching. Using collaborative intersectional frameworks while maintaining authenticity, empathy and curiosity, we make sense of patterns, reduce shame, and build realistic, sustainable ways of moving forward.
