During the decade I spent working as a social scientist, I heard stories of strength, resilience, and courage. I also heard stories of humiliation, abuse, and grief. Throughout, what I have found most compelling is the storytelling. If you are here and are considering reaching out, I cannot wait to hear your story. My own journey with therapy has led me here. For most of my life, I felt I was walking in the dark, often stumbling and getting hurt. When I began therapy, it felt like someone switched a light on, allowing me to finally see the obstacles I had been running into. My goal is to help each client to turn on their own light.

I’m back! You have spent years trying to figure out why everything feels harder for you: relationships, routines, emotions, work, and rest. You have been called intense, scattered, too much, and not enough, often all at once. You have become an expert at hiding your overwhelm, constantly performing a version of “okay” while quietly burning out inside. Maybe you have recently discovered that you are neurodivergent, whether ADHD, autistic, or both, and now everything finally makes sense… and also nothing makes sense at all.
You might be grieving the years you went unseen.

You may be wondering why you, or you and your partner, seem to repeat certain patterns, or you might notice that you tend to distract yourself when certain emotions come up… and if you’re here browsing therapists, perhaps you’ve also realized how these coping mechanisms are catching up with you and/or impacting your relationship?
Therapy is a space to reflect on life’s circumstances, your choices, the ways you show up (for yourself/your partner), how they’ve shaped who you are, and how they may no longer serve you. Therapy can be a powerful shift from simply coping to living with greater awareness, purpose, and connection.

“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.” - Carl Rogers I believe that the first step in moving towards the life you want is to accept yourself and your position as they are. This is not a request to settle, but rather, an invitation to look at the cards you hold. Only after accepting how things are can your next steps be determined. I can provide the space for you to express how difficult things are, while the healing relationship we build together will serve as the vehicle driving change. Seeking support is not easy, and you are stronger than you think by simply taking this first step.

Healing from relationship trauma is possible—and you don’t have to face it alone. I specialize in helping people recover from betrayal trauma, narcissistic abuse, and other wounds caused by painful relationships. Whether these experiences began in childhood or developed later, they can disrupt your sense of self, body connection, and relationship with others. You might struggle with people-pleasing, anxiety, perfectionism, or a feeling of being too much, yet not enough. Together, we can process these experiences, attune to your nervous system, and create new patterns that help you feel grounded, confident, and connected again.
