My approach is grounded in the belief that therapy works best not by giving quick fixes, but by creating a space where we can slow down together and get curious about what's underneath the surface—your patterns, your pain, your hopes, and the parts of you that may have been left behind along the way.
As a full-time therapist in psychoanalytic training, I believe therapy is not just about symptom relief, it’s about becoming more fully yourself. Not the version shaped by pressure, fear, or survival, but the version that feels true, alive, and whole.

In a world that rewards us for disconnecting from our bodies and settling for surface-level relationships, reconnection becomes a revolutionary act. I think this is why I find myself especially connected to the work of supporting people who feel disconnected from their bodies and relationships. Many people find themselves living primarily from the neck up—intellectualizing experiences rather than fully feeling them, sensing that something important is missing without quite being able to name it. Sometimes there's a history of trauma that made disconnection necessary, or cultural messages that prioritized achievement over embodiment.

Down bad? Feeling wonky? Lets talk about it. I help clients with a variety of issues by tailoring my therapeutic approach to their unique needs and goals. I want everyone I work with to realize their full potential by restructuring maladaptive thought patterns that lead to distress and poor functioning. I hope to give my clients the space to process their thoughts and emotions, and understand the ways in which their behavior and subconscious beliefs about themselves and the world around them play into false narratives that ultimately keep themselves down. I strive to help my clients to learn to love themselves without condition.

In my practice, I aim to accompany you, using a trauma-informed lens and psychoanalytic approach to explore your unconscious, on your journey inward. I believe each of us has so much to learn and teach from our experiences and perspectives if we can give ourselves the space and self-compassion to process them.
