You wake up one day realizing you can no longer go on like this. You're ready to find help navigating difficult emotions, thoughts, behaviors, and conflicted relationships. You might be experiencing disconnection from yourself or others, anxiety, depression, feeling overwhelmed, or processing grief. I’m here to support you as we work through the things that seem to be getting in the way. Your emotions and internal experiences are messengers, seeking your attention and pointing the way towards growth, healing, and connection. My style is warm and direct, working with you towards clarity, depth, and expansion of the self.
In our sessions together, we'll explore the thoughts and emotions that feel the most pressing to you. We'll make sense of your world and process the reoccurring feelings, thoughts, and behaviors that feel frustrating, confusing, or distressing. Rather than just learning to cope, we'll do the deep work that leads towards the life you long to live.
I see men, women, and couples who come from a variety of backgrounds, ethnicities, sexual orientations, and life experiences. I'm currently accepting new clients and will get back to you within 48 hours of your inquiry. Please contact me to set up a free 15-minute consultation where I can get to know you and answer any questions you might have.
