My website

I work with ambitious professionals, creatives, and LGBTQ+ adults who want to understand the deeper patterns shaping their lives—especially when a lot is expected of you, alongside complicated family dynamics, questions around identity, or difficult relationships. My approach is thoughtful, direct, and relational. You may already have insight into your patterns—but insight alone hasn’t created the change you’re looking for. Something in how you relate, work, or move through the world still feels stuck, repetitive, or harder than it should.

We focus on what’s happening in your life right now, while making sense of the patterns that influence how you attach, achieve, and respond under stress. This work goes beyond surface-level coping—it’s about understanding yourself in a way that actually changes how you live.

As our work deepens, clients often notice clearer boundaries, more stable and fulfilling relationships, and a stronger sense of self-trust. Therapy becomes a space where you don’t have to perform—and where meaningful, lasting change can take root. If you’re considering this kind of work, I offer a complimentary consultation to see if we’re a good fit.

I help high-achieving professionals, creatives, and LGBTQ adults who struggle with anxiety, burnout, relationship strain, or repeating emotional patterns. Treatment involves examining how early experiences and current pressures shape the way you attach, achieve, and respond under stress. Clients gain clearer boundaries, stronger self-trust, and relationships that feel more stable and mutual.
