Seeking therapy can be unsettling—and finding the right therapist even more so. I work from a place of warmth and curiosity, creating a space where you can speak freely, feel deeply, and gradually come to know yourself in new ways. Together, we can explore the roots of your struggles while also attending to what’s happening right now.

I’m a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist. Our work may include making sense of emotions that are hard to name, noticing patterns in your relationships, and bringing unconscious processes into awareness. I also draw on practical strategies to help you feel more grounded day to day.

Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or a sense that something’s off, therapy can offer more than relief—it can be a space for real change, toward greater freedom, connection, and meaning. The relationship between you and I is at the heart of this work. If that sounds right to you, I’d be glad to connect.
