I work with teens, adults, retirees, and couples who are navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, and concerns such as anxiety, depression, and grief. Many clients come in feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationships. I provide a supportive, insight-oriented space where clients can explore patterns, build emotional awareness, and develop practical tools for change. Using a trauma-informed, attachment-based approach, I help clients strengthen emotional regulation, improve relationships, and move toward lasting growth.
I offer trauma-informed, attachment-based therapy to help clients understand themselves, manage emotions, and build healthier relationships. I specialize in anxiety, depression, grief, borderline personality patterns, life transitions, and women’s mental health, using psychodynamic therapy, CBT, and DBT to support lasting change.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to start, you’re not alone. Therapy can be a space to slow down, feel understood, and begin making sense of what you’re going through. When you’re ready, I welcome you to reach out.
