You’re insightful. Self-aware. High functioning. And exhausted from living in your head.
You overanalyze conversations in your head. You replay tone shifts. You anticipate worst-case scenarios. In relationships, you may find yourself either anxiously pursuing reassurance or pulling back to protect yourself. You’re tired of repeating patterns, but you don’t fully understand why they keep happening.
I work with capable adults and couples navigating anxiety, overthinking, and attachment patterns. Together, we explore the roots of your reactions to build more secure, satisfying relationships.

How do you find yourself in the midst of a big change? Breakups, moving, career switches, family conflicts. Let's be real: it's exhausting. Whether or not these life transitions are voluntary, you might be realizing that you may not actually know yourself anymore. Along the way, anxiety, memories of past traumas, or self doubt may have become part of your daily functioning. As exciting as it may be to discover who you are outside of where you came from, it's also intimidating. "Where do I even start? What does it mean to know myself? How would self discovery even help me long term?" I hear you. You're in the right place.

Sometimes there are unforeseen circumstances that lead to difficult roads ahead, and we can feel stuck. What am I doing here? Where am I going? When will this be different?

This is where therapy can come in and be transformative. Change is only created when there is acknowledgement of emotions, better understanding, and the process to unlock your full potential.

I work with thoughtful, introspective people of all ages who are in some kind of in-between. On the surface, life might look fine, but underneath are lacking fulfillment or meaning, feel caught between who you are and who you’re “supposed” to be, experiencing mood swings, an ever-present anxiety, relationship and family tensions, creative burnout, or a sense that the life they’re living doesn’t quite fit.
Together, we'll work towards purposeful and courageous living that's more aligned with your values, creativity, and spirit and less driven by fear, stress, comparison, and guilt.

Relationships are one of the most impactful areas of our lives. If you are experiencing a lot of stress in your relationships, I can imagine the toll it is taking on your overall wellbeing. The quality of our childhood bonds can determine the patterns of our relationships in adulthood. Human connections can improve. With the help of a judgment-free professional and implementation of new skills, relationships can become healing and transformative. I believe that growth is achieved by the pairing of insight and the implementation of tools and techniques that will be learned in psychotherapy.
