If you're here, chances are you've already spent a lot of time trying to understand yourself. Maybe you're constantly overthinking, replaying conversations, questioning your decisions, or trying to make sense of why you feel the way you do. Or maybe you've reached a point where the questions have become bigger: Is this really all there is? Why do I feel so disconnected? Why can't I seem to get out of my own way? You've searched for answers, but insight alone hasn't brought the relief you were hoping for.
I work with thoughtful, high-achieving adults who still feel anxious, tense, or stuck in cycles they can't think their way out of. My style is warm, grounded, and unpretentious. We draw from EMDR, IFS, and somatic therapy, but more importantly, we make space for your full humanity. The focus is on shifting your nervous system, not just learning to cope.
Starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially if you’re used to handling everything on your own. When you’re ready to sort through what’s yours to hold (and gently set down what isn’t), I’m here. And if any part of you is craving something more than just getting through the day, it’s worth listening to.

I work with clients who tend to live in their heads, often as a way to manage depression, anxiety, or the weight of unanswered questions about meaning and purpose. Many of my clients are skilled problem-solvers for everyone else, yet feel stuck, disconnected, or restless inside.
