You feel disconnected, overwhelmed, and unsure of who you are … in your relationships, your identity, and your everyday life. If you’re here, something probably isn’t sitting right. Maybe you’re tired of feeling like you’re “too much” or “not enough.” Maybe you’re stuck in patterns that don’t make sense but feel impossible to break.

If any of this sounds familiar, I want you to know that I see you. And I’m glad you’re here.

Hello, I am taking new patients! If you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck in self-criticism, or disconnected from others, you’re not alone. Through a person-centered lens, my approach is collaborative, grounded in compassion and respect for your lived experience. Clients often describe me as warm, grounded, and direct—with a focus on empowerment and self-compassion. My role isn’t to “fix” you—it’s to support you in uncovering your strengths, building resilience, and creating a life that feels more aligned and authentic. I believe the most integral component in the therapeutic process is the moment a client feels understood.

I truly care about what you are experiencing. Having the right support is the key to being able to overcome areas that are keeping you stuck. You have managed to cope and survive this long, but perhaps it feels like you don't have all of the tools or insights to find true relief from symptoms or difficulties you are experiencing. You are constantly weighed down by anxiety, holding yourself to high standards with little time for restoration, or haunted by the lingering effects of trauma. Perhaps you have tried therapy before and wonder how to really get the most of it.

I offer a supportive approach rooted in psychodynamic and mindfulness-based models with a focus on trauma, anxiety and depression. Together we'll work towards the goal of building emotional well-being, and rooting out unhealthy internalized beliefs, and transform behavior patterns that no longer serve you into ones that offer support and self-esteem. Trauma needs to be witnessed and tolerated in a safe environment for you to learn that you already have the skills and knowledge within for transformative healing and self-discovery. Join me on this path of growth and resilience.

Kierkegaard stated, “the most common form of despair is not being who you are.” Whether you experience this as anxiety, depression, a sense of being “thrown” into the world, stress, or some murky, unnamable thing, it’s daunting to not feel like yourself. A lack of support, past trauma, systemic oppression, or societal pressures can result in feeling like it’s either unsafe to be yourself or, in some cases, like you’ve never had the opportunity to even meet the real you. It’s my belief that you are worth knowing, that your story deserves to be heard, & that therapy can be a powerful tool in finding meaningful change.
