I enjoy working with adults who are navigating deep emotional terrains — things like complex trauma, family dysfunction, existential dread, spirituality, and life transitions. The people I work with may identify as misfits, people-pleasers, empaths, or highly sensitive. They might be creative and high functioning, yet struggle with self-doubt and ask a lot of "why" questions. They may love deeply, except when it comes to themselves. Sometimes they feel disconnected from their bodies and wonder what the point is.
My approach is grounded in psychodynamic theory, EMDR, existential-humanistic therapy, parts work, and inner child healing. I help people make sense of where they’ve been, untangle patterns from their past, and reconnect with who they truly are — beyond survival mode, beyond shame, and beyond the roles they had to play.
Clients often tell me they feel seen in ways they never have before. I aim to show up with warmth, humor, and attunement. I like to use some of that magic, so that emotional depth can meet sparkling curiosity. I'm able to see clients who live in California and Illinois, so you’re ready to explore further, I’d be honored to work with you.
