I work with people who long for deeper, more reciprocal relationships, a life that actually fits, and a way of being that doesn’t require so much effort to maintain. You know how to hold it all together. You show up, take care of others, work hard, and keep moving, regardless of what you need. Externally, all looks well, but internally, you feel stuck in patterns that leave you feeling drained, unseen, weighed down by pain, burned out, or always chasing. I specialize in working with high-performers, perfectionists, people pleasers, or anxious attachers who seek greater satisfaction, connection, peace, and balance in their life.
Together, we explore the hidden architecture of your identity — the beliefs, roles, unmet needs, hurts, and relational blueprints you developed to survive, succeed, protect, and feel valued. You may have learned to get what you need by overfunctioning and now notice these earlier adaptations are limiting connection, vitality, rest, and your sense of worth.
We explore how life and relationships have shaped your nervous system, emotions, boundaries, and map for connection. If you’re ready for therapy that is deep, human, and transformative, going beneath symptom relief to the roots of your struggles, I’d be honored to work with you. You deserve a satisfying life, connected relationships, and authentic self-worth

I lean into family systems, attachment, emotion, trauma, and somatic models of therapy. These approaches allow me to help clients (and therapists!) organize their current maps for self and others, identify and heal the issues that cause pain, burnout, or limitation, and move toward their potential. My approach is human, directive, engaging, purposeful, and goal-focused.
