My ideal clients are parents feeling stretched thin, individuals and couples navigating infertility, and people facing major life transitions. They come in carrying a mix of old wounds, daily stress, and the quiet ache of feeling unseen or stuck. Many aren't sure where to start. They just know something needs to shift. Therapy offers a space to slow down, sort through what feels heavy, and reconnect with yourself. No plan or perfect words required. Just you, as you are. Together, we work toward feeling steadier, more grounded, and more connected to who you are.
I specialize in supporting parents, those facing infertility, and people navigating life transitions. Drawing from CBT, psychodynamic therapy, and an integrative approach, I tailor treatment to what each person needs to help you untangle what feels stuck and move forward with more clarity and steadiness.
You do not have to be at a breaking point to benefit from therapy. If something has been nagging at you or weighing you down, that is reason enough. I am happy to talk through what is going on and whether working together makes sense.

I work with both men and women on issues like stress, anxiety, relationships, and life transitions. As a parent, I understand the challenges of pregnancy, postpartum, infertility, and parenting. I also have experience with clients who feel "difficult" or misunderstood. Treatment often involves building insight, healthier coping tools, and feeling more balanced.
