Being human is hard sometimes - especially when old patterns, stress, or past experiences keep showing up in your relationships or inner world in ways you can’t seem to think your way out of. You may feel exhausted, frustrated, or caught in cycles that don’t reflect who you want to be. You’ve likely done a lot to survive and cope, and at some point that can start to feel limiting rather than supportive.
I work with people who want to understand what’s happening beneath the surface - not just to feel better momentarily, but to make real, lasting changes in how they relate to themselves and others. Therapy isn't about “getting over it” or forcing positivity. It's about slowing down enough to notice patterns as they arise, including in the therapy room.
Finding a therapist can be challenging, and fit matters deeply. I offer free phone or video consultations so you can ask questions, get a sense of how I work, and see whether this feels like the collaborative process you're looking for.

Many of the people I work with are already insightful and capable, yet find that their nervous system reactions, emotional intensity, or relationship habits override their intentions in key moments. Using a combination of relational therapy, somatic approaches, and EMDR where appropriate, we work directly with those responses so they take up less space in your life.

I aim to offer a grounded, engaged presence that is warm, but also real. I'm interested in your strengths and in the places where things get stuck, and I believe meaningful change happens when we can stay present with discomfort rather than avoid it or perform around it. This work asks for participation: curiosity about yourself, willingness to reflect, and openness to noticing your own role.
