What would it feel like if you allowed yourself to express your authentic truth, your deepest desires and dreams? Notice your gut reaction to this question. Does it excite or scare you? Perhaps it does both, brings up judgment, or simply sounds impossible to answer right now. Whatever your response, this can be a generative entry point for exploring your relationship with yourself and your impulses, feelings, and dreams. If you tend towards perfectionism, people-pleasing, or taking care of others before yourself, this question might be particularly anxiety-provoking or difficult to answer. I get that, and I'd love to help you.
I hope this inquiry has given you a sense of what therapy with me can feel like. In my healing work, my intention - along with supporting you in clarifying and meeting your goals for therapy and for your life - is to provide you with a safe space to explore your truth as it shows up in your body, heart, and mind in the present moment.
Getting to this point can take time, so I provide warm, open-ended, and compassionate guidance to help you deepen into your inner experience at a pace and in a way that works for you. I believe in your innate desire and ability to heal and grow, and I would be honored to support you in your journey towards wholeness and greater connection with all that is.

I work with individuals experiencing anxiety and/or depression, often due to perfectionism and people-pleasing tendencies that cause stress, resentment, and even burnout. By exploring together how these patterns originated for you and how they manifest physically, psychologically, and interpersonally, we can find sustainable ways for you to change your behavior and find lasting relief and freedom.

I use a mindfulness-informed, body-oriented approach to talk therapy. Depending on what feels right for you, I may incorporate breathwork, meditation, visualization, yoga poses, or gentle movement into our sessions. I generally start sessions with a guided body scan or other meditation to allow you time to connect with yourself and notice how you're feeling in your body before we begin talking.
