I work with thoughtful adults ready to go deeper, people who doubt themselves at times, want new ways of relating and coping, and are carrying something in life they're ready to examine. Maybe you're navigating family patterns, complicated relationships, or transitions that have shaken your footing. By creating a warm space, I'll help you find clarity over time. I bring genuine engagement, over 15 years of experience, a fresh perspective, and close attention to what's underneath, drawing on parts work (IFS), somatic awareness, and intergenerational thinking. Expect real, yet gentle conversation, and yes, some humor along the way!
You set the pace here. I specialize in helping you find your own inner compass, so you can trust your decisions and feel more at ease in your relationships. I have advanced training in trauma and extensive experience supporting people navigating their relationship with substances, whether in recovery or working toward harm reduction.
If you're looking for a therapist who will understand the full complexity of who you are, reach out. I'm eager to talk. You're also welcome to listen to my podcast, In Your Hands, to get a sense of my approach and whether my personality resonates with what you're looking for.

I have extensive experience with trauma work, as well as harm reduction and sobriety work. These areas carry shame for many people, and people frequently tell me they're surprised by how comfortable they become talking about and working on these topics with me.

I specialize in intergenerational trauma, childhood histories of abuse or neglect, and relationship patterns where you give more than you receive. I don't pathologize. Instead we work together to find your own language for your experiences and identify what you need. Over time, people often find they trust themselves more, feel less at the mercy of others, and move through their days with ease.

I work relationally and with depth, carefully attuning to different parts of you so no needs get left out. I'm also a trained herbalist, and while outside the scope of psychotherapy, my relationship with plants informs how I think about self-care. For those interested in an extended therapeutic container and exploring their work from new vantage points, I offer ketamine-assisted psychotherapy.
