You might be feeling stuck in a pattern that you can’t quite name—something in your relationships, your emotions and behaviors, or in the way you see yourself that keeps cycling back. I aim to help you slow down, notice what’s really happening underneath, and begin to shift those patterns so you can feel more connected, grounded, and free.
My approach is trauma-informed, attachment-based, and collaborative. I often draw from EMDR, parts work (IFS-informed), psychoanalysis, and relational models to help clients work through presenting problems. In session, we might explore the parts of you that carry pain or protection and the emotions that need space to be seen.
Taking that first step can feel intimidating, especially if you’ve had therapy before that didn’t quite fit. My hope is to make it feel authentic and collaborative from the start. Together, we’ll explore what’s working, what’s not, and what you’re ready to change.
