There's usually a moment - something shifts, or has been shifting for a while, and you find yourself here. A weight you can't quite name, a pattern you keep returning to, or a life that looks full from the outside but feels different from within. I work in a way that's slow and collaborative - unhurried, without an agenda. You won't be rushed toward answers. We'll look at where you've been, how it lives in the present, and where you want to go.
I find it particularly meaningful to work with people who feel defined by others — a parent's addiction, a relationship where you disappeared, or years of putting others first. If you've lost the sense of what you want, I'd like to sit with you in that and ask what a life centered on yourself might look like.
Therapy is less about explanations and more about the experience of being truly listened to — of having someone sit with you while you figure out what you're after. That experience is rarer than it should be. If it feels missing from your life, I'd love to connect.
