You may be carrying pain that didn’t start with you. If you grew up in a home where emotions weren’t talked about or love was conditional, you may carry a persistent feeling that something’s off, but you can’t always name what it is. Maybe you were the “strong one” in your family, the peacemaker, or the one expected to succeed without complaint. Or maybe you’re starting to unpack the emotional burden of having parents who couldn’t give you what you needed because they never got it themselves. These experiences can leave you feeling confused, hyper-independent, or emotionally overwhelmed without understanding why.

Whether you are a man trying to navigate societal expectations of strength while feeling internal turmoil, or someone struggling to find their footing after a significant loss.
Ever find yourself in the struggle of just existing and living your life? Avoiding the realities of our lives can be our first response, leading us to push our emotions into the unconscious. Anxiety and depression are common difficulties that many face, and often we find ourselves with irrational thoughts that invoke feelings of being in danger that never go away. Or depression, which shows up in adults as hopelessness, despair, and anger. This results in individuals feeling so overwhelmed by their day-to-day. As a psychodynamic/insight-oriented counselor, I would love to help you build and find resilience and strength.

As a hospice and palliative care doula, I have experience working with grief, loss, illness, and transition.
I work with people who feel stuck, especially in their relationships. Maybe you have been searching for something you cannot seem to find no matter how hard you try. Maybe you keep doing the same thing over and over without understanding why. Maybe you want to go deeper, to be closer, to feel more connected and more authentically yourself with others. Inside, you might feel lonely, overwhelmed, or exhausted from carrying it alone. But you are curious, and you have a hunch that something can be different. Together, we will slow down your habitual emotional patterns and go deeper than traditional talk therapy.

People often seek out therapy when they are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or alone. These feelings may cause symptoms of anxiety, depression, difficulty managing anger, or dependance on food or substances to cope. As a therapist I enjoy creating a relationship that is warm, consistent, and safe to explore difficult feelings or experiences while figuring out what symptoms like anxiety, or depression are trying to tell us. Having someone who is curious about the way you think and feel can be truly transformative. This process can lead to the rediscovery of your own innate constructive forces, bringing relief and much needed change.
