Life seems stuck in the same place. Inside it feels like rush hour traffic, so many thoughts, so many noises, it can be so hard to keep track. Your thoughts are not the kindest and feel scattered all over the place. Your emotions make it feel impossible to figure out the missing pieces. You’re trying to start new habits and make life changes, but you keep finding yourself back where you started.

Sometimes, we adapt in ways that work.Other times, our tools backfire.

Something has felt off for a while, but you can’t quite understand why. You’ve tried coping strategies, yet relief feels temporary or incomplete. You’ve begun to notice your symptoms and how they’ve strained relationships, clouded your confidence, and affected the way you engage with the world. It may feel like something outside your awareness needs attention — a deeper layer that has yet to be understood. What you’re experiencing isn’t random, and it isn’t a personal failing. You likely don’t need another coping strategy. Understanding where your symptoms began can keep them from controlling your life.

We all need connection and support as unique as we are. My work as a therapist values collective culture and the natural world as much as individual growth, and I help clients connect to these sources along with our work together. I provide specialized care for individuals, groups, relationships, and families who seek to better their communication, face healthy conflict, build self-awareness and confidence, and heal from harm. In exploring and challenging ourselves, we can also cultivate social justice and joy.

Are you feeling lost or like you’re not where you should be? Are you struggling with feeling like a failure or comparing yourself to others? Are you feeling disconnected from your partner or your friends and family? Any of these feelings can bring up deep fear and pain that can be difficult, or nearly impossible to shake.

I specialize in working with individuals who carry the invisible weight of early relational trauma, often expressed through anxiousness, low self-worth, body image struggles, codependency, and nervous system dysregulation. These patterns are not flaws—they are adaptations that once kept you safe. Together, we’ll explore how these patterns formed and how they’re showing up in your present life.
Our work will involve identifying and understanding thoughts, behaviors, and strategies that may no longer serve you, exploring personal identity and values, cultivating self-trust, and accepting the limits and humanity of self and others.
