Many people struggle with feeling like they need to push through and avoid the hurt and stress they’ve been carrying to be strong. My passion is in helping you lift the burden you’ve been carrying and truly see and hear your story. You don't need a reason to start therapy; sometimes you just need someone to talk to and process relationship struggles or even current events. As an attachment therapist, we’ll look at how your symptoms are not a reflection of some personal flaw, but rather as a symptom of a larger relational problem. My goal is to become a safe and consistent attachment figure for you.
I specialize in helping you navigate life’s challenges through a compassionate and evidence-based approach. We’ll work together to recognize underlying patterns & develop practical tools for healing and growth. By exploring your unique story and building a strong therapeutic alliance, we can work towards greater emotional well-being & a more fulfilling life.
If you're ready to set off on this journey of self-discovery and healing, have hope that things can and will get better. Results don't happen overnight- It takes time and dedication to see the results you're hoping for. If you've made it this far, send me an email. I'm looking forward to hearing from you!

Therapy is a collaborative process where you decide what we work on each week. For me, the most important element in therapy is your ability to tell your story on your terms, highlighting it with compassion, honesty, and humor. If you're pretty nerdy (like me), we'll use your nerdy passions to help frame your therapy.

We'll explore the problem & what outcomes you're hoping for. As we foster the therapeutic relationship, we'll have deep conversations about your life, relationships, and emotions through conversation and storytelling. Our goal, together, is not to "fix" you, but rather to accept you as you are and identify how to better your relationship to yourself and others. I'm looking forward to meeting you!
