Sometimes we can move on from our past, but what happens when we can't? I specialize in working with adults who feel stuck in patterns rooted in trauma, attachment wounds or early relational experiences. Using a trauma-informed and culturally-sensitive lens, I integrate an attachment/psychodynamic theory in the work that we do, pulling from a variety of interventions. I honor that you know yourself best and what helps one person, may not help another. If anxiety, trauma, or repeated relationship patterns are leaving you overwhelmed or stuck, I can help you build clarity, resilience, and new ways forward.

If you’ve experienced a miscarriage, stillbirth, infertility, are pregnant after loss, or postpartum after loss or infertility you may feel overwhelmed by grief, anxiety, trauma, or the fear that something could go wrong again. You may feel isolated, misunderstood, or as though no one truly understands the complexity of what you’ve been through. Pregnancy loss and infertility often affect far more than your emotions—they can change your relationships, your sense of self, and the way you experience your body, future, and hope. You don’t have to carry that alone.

Someone wanting to engage in therapy for bipolar, depression, anxieties, self-image, or relationship/couples experiences, and more, is always welcome to do so. They may certainly reach a time of stability in their lives as well as learn more about their truest self, as they are guided by insight-growing techniques and trustful processing. They can learn that simply being present, actively listening, and earning trust is vital to utilizing techniques during the therapy process. I believe that together, insight into one’s mental health can be fostered through learning, and healthy change can be realized through guidance.

Chronic illness support for you and your partner.
If you’re living with a chronic health condition, you’ve likely been given a plan—but not always the support needed to follow through day to day. And if you’re supporting someone you care about, it can be hard to know how to help without feeling overwhelmed or creating tension.
We work with patients and their partners or family members together.
Most care plans break down at home, between medical visits. That’s where we focus our work—helping you build sustainable routines, improve communication, and stay on track over time.
