Therapy is not just for when life feels like everything is on fire… but if that is where you are, we can start there. You may feel stuck in the same old patterns, overwhelmed by relationships, or unsure what your next step should be. Maybe you are looking for clarity, hoping to strengthen connections, or just trying to figure out how to cope without feeling like you have to hold everything together on your own. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, supported, and maybe even able to laugh at the messiness of being human, while also being gently challenged to broaden perspectives and grow.
I take a collaborative, systemic approach to therapy. Together, we will explore how your relationships, family dynamics, and life experiences have shaped where you are today. I balance warmth and compassion with a willingness to ask the tough questions and point out patterns that may not be serving you anymore (in the nicest possible way).
Starting therapy can feel intimidating. It can also feel like “Am I really about to spill my life story to a total stranger?” Yes, you are, and it is worth it! My job is to make that process feel less scary, and maybe even a little lighter than you expect. If you are ready to take this step toward meaningful change, I would love to be a part of it.

I work from a person-centered and emotionally focused approach, blending in cognitive behavioral and strategic techniques when helpful. Much of my work centers around attachment, exploring how early experiences shape current patterns in relationships and self. I believe therapy should fit you, not the other way around, so I shape our work together to meet your unique needs and goals.
