Everyone deserves the opportunity to be seen and live a fully authentic life. My work is devoted to helping you reconnect with the parts of yourself that had to disappear to belong. When you grow up adapting to others’ needs, it can become second nature to minimize your own. I specialize in working with millennials who appear capable and composed on the outside, yet feel disconnected, self-doubting, or quietly exhausted on the inside. You may struggle with people-pleasing, perfectionism, difficulty setting boundaries, or feeling unseen in relationships—longing to feel grounded, confident, and at home in yourself.
I help clients heal patterns of people-pleasing, perfectionism, and self-doubt through an integrative approach that may include psychodynamic therapy, somatic and psychospiritual work, ecotherapy, hypnotherapy, and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy.
Seeking support can feel unfamiliar when you’ve spent a long time doing everything on your own. What you’re carrying matters, no problem is too small. And you certianly don’t have to hold it alone. Your pain and your healing both deserve space. If this feels like the right next step, I invite you to reach out.

During my time at NYU I discovered that my passion for psychedelics, spirituality, shamanism, yoga, and unconscious reprogramming could all be merged into psychotherapy work. I take every opportunity to expand myself, and therefore my work. I geek out over all things esoteric!

I guide you to 'innerstand' WHY you have felt stuck in overwhelming people-pleasing cycles that leave you feeling drained and not good enough. Cultivating an innerstanding of how you got to this point will help you begin to heal from past wounds and create new beliefs and behaviors that serve you now.

Research has shown that your connection with your therapist is more important than the type of therapy they do. With that being said, I pull from a variety of modalities. I predominately use Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), Psychodynamic, and person-centered, all through a Spiritual & Shamanic lens.
