Do you want to dive deeper into your emotional world, connect more fully to yourself, develop more fulfilling relationships, & experience your values & actions in alignment? Together, we'll focus on clearing up confusion & pain still lingering from hurtful earlier life experiences, while also celebrating and expanding on the skills, resourcefulness, and determination that got you this far.
- - I provide psychotherapy for adults, sliding fee range, in-office or telehealth. Contact me to schedule a free intro call to talk about your hopes and get a sense of how I work. Let's do this together! - -
- - My style is warm, direct, gentle & collaborative. Rather than advising or pathologizing, I offer trustworthy connection & support as you move through pain, overwhelm, and uncertainty, & grapple with existential questions. If you are looking for a creative, flexible, human-first experience with therapy, reach out! - -
- - We'll decide together how to incorporate emotional expression and reflection, thoughtful inquiry and dialogue, mindfulness and somatic exercises, and other trauma recovery practices. It's my honor to be in relationships that support healing, growth, & joy. - - Feel welcome to contact me today to request a free intro call! You're worth it.
