You do not have to carry this all alone. Wholeness is our birthright. But so many of us walk through the world feeling broken—grieving, anxious, numb, stuck, overwhelmed. Therapy is a place to lay that down. I work with adults navigating grief and loss, anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, co-dependence, and struggles with self-worth. I’ll meet you with warmth, presence, and compassion—and just enough humor to keep it real.
My approach is heart-centered and experiential. I blend humanistic/psychodynamic therapy, somatic work, Internal Family Systems (parts work), mindfulness, music and expressive arts, and deep listening to whatever’s alive in the moment.
After years of in-person therapy, I have found the power of online therapy - safe, accessible healing in your own home when and how you need it - to be immeasurable. So grab your favorite blanket, warm drink or furry friend. Meet me on the couch, and let’s begin.
