Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure why certain patterns keep repeating in your life? Many people come to therapy wanting relief from stress or anxiety, better relationships, or a clearer sense of direction. I work with clients who are motivated for change but feel disconnected from themselves or unsure where to start. Together, we slow things down, make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface, and create space for more clarity, balance, and choice.
My work is informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS), a gentle, evidence based approach that helps us understand the different parts of you that show up under stress, the part that pushes, the part that worries, the part that shuts down. Rather than fixing or getting rid of these parts, we focus on understanding them and reducing inner tension they create
Therapy with me is collaborative, supportive, and paced to your needs. There’s no pressure to have the right words or know exactly what you want to work on. Whether you’re navigating stress, a life transition, or simply wanting to feel more grounded and connected, I offer a steady space to explore, reflect, and move forward with greater confidence.
