Whatever you bring, however you show up, I'm here to greet you as you actually are, without any script, assumption, or agenda. Understanding complexity and working through deeply layered problems comes naturally for me, and years of diverse clinical work alongside training in art, music, and the humanities have deepened my attunement to thoughts and feelings that struggle to be said or heard in conventional ways. I try to approach therapy through genuine human connection, because this kind of vulnerability is often what allows clarity, change, growth, and a fuller sense of being alive to emerge.
I work eclectically, because the same warm water that softens the potato hardens the egg. Rather than squeezing you into a method I'm more interested in discovering - or creating - what actually helps you in therapy. My work is relational, psychodynamic, and embodied, and I work w/ anxiety, trauma, identity, relationships, and treatment-resistant depression
Think of me as a travel companion through the landscapes of your inner life. You decide where we go, what we return to, what feels worth exploring. I'm here to move alongside you, bringing my full attention and care to whatever you're carrying. My role is to help make the path feel safer, clearer, and sometimes a little lighter than it would alone.
