Life doesn’t come with an instruction manual. I view therapy as a deeply collaborative process where, together, we navigate life challenges, whether you are carrying the weight of grief, managing anxiety, depression, exploring substance use, or untangling relationship knots. I am particularly passionate about supporting you through life’s major transitional phases. Whether you are launching into adulthood, navigating the wild ride of parenthood, or facing midlife shifts, I am here to help you find your footing. Being human is a full-spectrum experience, complete with soaring highs, painful lows, and a lot of unpredictable moments.
Therapy provides a sacred space for exploration and growth from those experiences. I practice culturally sensitive, affirming space for all. I blend clinical expertise with a lived empathy for the realities of life. I draw from psychodynamic, psychoanalytic, and attachment-based theories, wrapping it all in trauma-informed care.
From the moment you step into my space—virtually or in person—my goal is for you to feel like you can take a deep breath and take off your armor. Therapy is your time to be entirely yourself. You will be met with genuine curiosity, warmth, and absolute acceptance. There is no judgment here, and absolutely no need to "have it all together."
