I work with thoughtful individuals and couples seeking deeper self-understanding and lasting change. Many struggle with anxiety, depression, early relational trauma, narcissistic dynamics, codependency, addiction, grief, identity concerns, or spiritual crisis. Often high-functioning yet internally stuck, they are ready to examine unconscious patterns shaping their relationships and sense of self. Together we work to heal attachment wounds, build emotional regulation, cultivate embodied presence, and create relationships rooted in authenticity, depth, and integrity.
I help individuals and couples understand and transform the deeper patterns shaping their emotional lives and relationships. My specialties include early relational trauma, narcissistic dynamics, codependency, personality disorders, and identity development. I also work with anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and psychospiritual crisis.
If you’re feeling stuck in patterns you can’t quite name, overwhelmed in your relationships, or quietly carrying anxiety, grief, or shame beneath a high-functioning exterior, you’re not alone. Many people sense that something deeper is asking to be understood, not just managed.
Therapy can be a place to slow down, be safe, and move forward, and I'm here.
