My ideal client is thoughtful, self-aware, and tired of repeating the same patterns in relationships, work, or within themselves. They may be navigating relationship conflict, life transitions, burnout, anxiety, or the emotional impact of trauma. Many feel disconnected from their bodies, their desires, or a sense of meaning, and want more than surface-level coping skills. They’re seeking a space that is affirming, honest, and emotionally attuned, where they can slow down, understand themselves more deeply, and build relationships that feel secure and authentic.
I provide relational, trauma-informed therapy for individuals and couples seeking lasting change. I specialize in ENM/CNM, LGBTQ+ and queer relationships, high-conflict dynamics, life transitions, burnout, and trauma. My approach is collaborative, attachment-based, and meaning-centered, with optional ketamine-assisted psychotherapy for deeper work.
Therapy with me is a steady relationship built on trust, honesty, and deep care. I don’t believe in quick fixes or surface-level change. The kind of work I do is about staying the course, walking with you through the uncertainty, the hard questions, and the tender parts of your story until you begin to see yourself with greater clarity and compassion.
