I believe therapy is based in connection. The relationship between you and your therapist can be a powerful vessel for transformation. It is a space to explore what it's like to build trust and security, repair ruptures, and be seen in moments of vulnerability. It can be a safe container with ample space for all parts of you and whatever you might need help holding. To me, therapy is a place to deepen our capacity for authentic connection and evolve how we relate to ourselves, others, and the world around us.
My work weaves together AEDP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy), parts work, body-based approaches, mindfulness, and sex therapy. My goal is to help folks get to know and reconnect with the parts of themselves that have learned to protect, perform, or disappear — and to invite those parts back into belonging.
I hold deep respect for the courage it takes to turn toward what hurts and to move toward what brings life. Whatever you’re looking to learn, explore, and move through, you are welcome here.
