Andy believes in warmly collaborating with clients to face challenges side by side, working together to foster authenticity, awareness, empowerment, vitality, healing, and growth. His work blends our emerging knowledge of neurobiology with a grounded and human perspective on the contexts of our lives. Our experiences, family, relationships, values, beliefs, and narratives interact with our brain, mind, and body in complex, amazing ways that can take some time to sort out, understand, and learn to master. Exploring these contexts is what energizes Andy’s approach to helping people work through obstacles and learn to thrive.

If you are ready to explore this and show up differently, this is the place to do it.

Let's be honest-sitting across from someone you don't know can be awkward and intimidating! You may feel lost and need someone to walk, provide a sounding board, and/or get in the trenches with you. I provide a safe space to do these things! Therapy is a relationship and should be treated as such. I use a relational approach with self disclosure when necessary. My style is very conversational whilst allowing my clients to be the experts on their own life and come to conclusions on their own. I provide more structure when it's wanted or needed and can do the opposite as well.

Now accepting new clients. Welcome! I’m glad you’re here. I work with women and professionals of color who often spend so much time showing up for everyone else that they lose touch with themselves in the process. Many are high-achieving and deeply caring, yet struggle with perfectionism, high-functioning anxiety, burnout, people-pleasing, self-doubt, and boundaries. Clients often come to therapy feeling emotionally exhausted, overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, or stuck in survival mode while navigating unresolved trauma, relationship stress, demanding environments, and major life transitions.

We all deserve a supportive space to process challenges. I believe that through deep curiosity towards ourselves - our circumstances and our inner worlds - we can cultivate clarity and wellbeing. As a therapist I bring compassion, calm, persistence, and joy to support the growth and change you want to foster. I use a parts-based perspective: the belief that "symptoms" are parts that developed to protect you from challenging circumstances. By bringing awareness to your inner world, we can help these parts release their extreme roles, allowing you to lead your life with more calm.
