I offer therapy informed by clinical training and broad life experience. I work with adults who may appear capable on the outside yet internally feel anxious, stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or dissatisfied with patterns in relationships or life. Many of my clients are thoughtful, high-functioning adults seeking greater clarity, steadiness, and meaningful change.
My approach combines practical tools with deeper insight. I integrate CBT for anxiety and stress, psychodynamic therapy for recurring relational patterns, and depth-oriented work that helps uncover unconscious habits that may be limiting growth.
Therapy with me is collaborative and personalized. I help clients build emotional resilience, stronger relationships, and a more grounded, authentic way of living. You don’t have to choose between strength and vulnerability. I have very limited availability. If this resonates, feel free to reach out to discuss fit.
