Life is often overwhelming and we blame ourselves for everything going wrong. For many of us, we try to push through things alone. To get over it, to out perform it, to not think about it, and especially don't talk about it. My goal is to make it easier to experience life without the fear of it overwhelming you. Whether you're facing depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, or trauma, we will work together to strengthen our ability face life with more compassion, resilience, and openness to ourselves and the loved ones we push away.
I’m passionate about helping individuals and couples unlock inner resources buried by trauma—especially men navigating masculinity, avoidance, and disconnection as well as women navigating attachment issues. I use Internal Family Systems (IFS), Attachment-based therapy, EMDR, and existential theory to support healing and help you live more authentically.
Choosing to do the work takes courage. My own therapy has helped me understand what it’s like on the other side of the couch. I know how hard it can be to find the right fit. I strive to create a caring, honest, and non-judgmental space for you to explore what matters. I recommend meeting with a few therapists and I hope to be one of them!
