I am a licensed clinical psychologist who works with adults and older adolescents seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and lasting emotional change. I work from a psychoanalytic perspective, which is grounded in the belief that our early relationships and unconscious patterns shape how we experience the present. I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, identity questions, relationship difficulties, and experiences of trauma. I welcome individuals of all backgrounds and identities and strive to be culturally sensitive in my work as a therapist.
I have a particular interest in maternal mental health. I support individuals through the emotional complexities of pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, fertility challenges, birth trauma, and loss. This season of life is incredibly vulnerable and brings up powerful feelings and questions about identity, attachment, and meaning.
My goal is to facilitate a therapeutic space where you feel safe, valued, and challenged. Our work can lead to symptom relief, a deeper understanding of yourself, healthier relationships, and new possibilities. I invite you to reach out for a 15-minute phone consultation to see whether we could be a good fit for therapy.

In our work together, I pay close attention to the patterns that emerge in your thoughts, feelings, relationships, and in the therapy itself. I believe that healing happens through a real, collaborative relationship where we can explore both your past and what's happening in the here and now. I listen deeply, ask thoughtful questions, and welcome all parts of you into the room.
