I work with teens and adults who may be functioning well in certain areas but feel stuck, disconnected, or uncertain about how they want to live. You may be navigating a transition, questioning old patterns, or wondering why life feels hollow despite it seeming fine on paper. Others come in feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or intense emotions. Together, we can understand what is shaping your experience and create more freedom in how you respond to thoughts, emotions, relationships, and change.
My approach integrates DBT, mindfulness, Buddhist psychology, and existential therapy. I offer practical skills when life feels overwhelming, alongside deeper exploration of meaning, awareness, identity, and the patterns that keep you stuck. The goal is not just insight, but a different relationship with your inner experience.
You do not have to have a clear picture of what feels off before starting therapy. I aim to offer a space that is grounded, curious, and collaborative—one where we can look honestly at what is happening without treating you as a problem to be fixed. If this way of working resonates, I’d be glad to hear from you.
