I am currently accepting new clients. I bring a direct yet compassionate approach to my work. When people come to me for therapy, it usually starts with a quiet realization that something in life just isn’t working anymore. Maybe you’re stuck in the same old patterns, questioning who you are, or feeling weighed down by anxiety, trauma, or relentless self-criticism. I don’t see these struggles as signs that you’re broken or need fixing. I see them as signals, responses that once helped you cope, adapt, or survive. In our work together, we’ll dig into these patterns, make sense of them, and help you reconnect with yourself again.
