Therapy can be a place to explore where you are and where you want to go. By blending present moment awareness of emotions, thoughts and sensations with in-depth exploration of touchstone experiences, we can learn more about what’s shaped who you are and what stands in the way of who you want to become. I seek to understand patterns of disruption, discomfort, and distress that can strain opportunities to connect with one's self, community, and the world.

As a therapist, I bring warmth, curiosity, and intentional challenge. I’m equal parts cheerleader and accountability guide—someone who hypes you up and holds space for the hard stuff. My approach begins with presence: a grounded energy and genuine interest in who you are and what brought you here. From there, we explore not just what happened, but why, how it felt, and how you’d like to take ownership or create change. As a couples therapist, I use a Queer lens to help couples and polycules work through their concerns. My work is rooted in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and I work with couples of all identities and issues.

I work with individuals who present with a variety of issues through the lens of attachment theory. I support clients who are navigating/exploring gender and sexuality, anxiety disorders, depression, stress management, substance use, relationship issues within monogamy and ethical non-monogamy, and life-stage adjustment. I trust in the importance of therapeutic rapport and creating a safe, trusting, non-judgmental environment. Working together within this space, we will work together to restore hope and facilitate healing by helping you to cope with both day to day stressors and experiences from the past.

You’ve built a life together—but lately, that life feels more like coexisting than truly connecting. The conversations are short, the intimacy is distant, and when conflict arises, it either explodes or gets swept under the rug. You’re not ready to give up, but you’re also not sure how much longer you can live in this limbo. Maybe you’ve tried talking it out, tried giving it time, tried pretending things are okay. Now, you’re ready for change. You want to feel close again. You want your relationship to feel like a partnership—and you want to believe it’s still possible.

Life can be challenging for many reasons. We all too often feel constrained by stress, feelings of loss, and/or disconnection. Often, we look around us and ask why others don't seem to share similar struggles. This can lead to feelings of being stuck, depression, hopelessness and/or feeling misunderstood. Therapy offers both a space and an opportunity for us to reconnect with those parts of ourselves that feel out of sync or overwhelmed.

I work with individuals and couples to help them understand themselves and improve their relationships with others. I believe that our patterns of relating, which are often formed in childhood, have an oversized impact on our sense of personal well-being and our ability to develop healthy, lasting connections with others. Many of the people I see suffer from anxiety, depression, grief, addiction and other mood and personality problems that originated from traumas – big and small – experienced earlier in life.

Growing up today is incredibly hard, and navigating the school years can feel like an uphill battle for both children and parents.

Please know this: you are doing the best you can, and you do not have to figure this out alone.

You may look like you have it all together on the outside, but inside you feel overwhelmed, stuck, or exhausted from trying to keep up. Maybe you overthink everything, procrastinate until the last minute, struggle to stay organized, or know what you should be doing but can't seem to make yourself do it. Anxiety, ADHD, depression, work stress, or unhealthy coping habits may leave you wondering why everyday life feels so much harder than it seems like it should.
