I approach each client with warmth, humor, curiosity, humility, and authenticity. My practice is neuro-affirming, queer-affirming, disability-affirming, social justice oriented, and trauma-informed.

Hello! If you're looking for a deeply empathic therapist who is committed to traveling the emotional terrain with you, I'm right here. I have a lot of experience exploring Family of Origin dynamics, supporting those who've been in co-dependent relationships, and who have experienced emotional and/or religious abuse. I understand that life transitions of any kind, even positive ones, can bring up a deep sense of grief, and I am unafraid to wade through that uncertainty and discomfort alongside you.

You may be at a point where things no longer feel sustainable, even if you can’t quite name why. Perhaps old experiences are resurfacing, or life has asked more of you than you have to give. You might feel disconnected from yourself, your relationships, or your sense of ease. Therapy can be a place to pause, feel less alone, and gently explore what healing and growth could look like for you. I have personally navigated trauma and the long, nonlinear process of healing, which allows me to meet clients with genuine empathy and respect for the courage it takes to begin therapy.

My approach is informed by the expansive field of somatic psychology as well as psychoanalytic theory, mainly British Object Relations.
I work best with individuals who feel a lot and are wanting to come into greater coherency with what they feel on the inside getting to be what is expressed on the outside. I work with individuals who find themselves lost, confused or in a paralyzed state around their emotional or relational experience, unsure what is causing the pain, how to interact with it, or even at times confused around the boundary between self and others. The hope of my work is to address some of the unconscious patterns, beliefs, feelings that are often at the root of this type of suffering.

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, even burned out? Is self-doubt holding you back? Maybe you feel stressed all the time and even everyday tasks feel overwhelming. Or you feel drained from constantly second-guessing yourself. You're trying to make progress, but you feel stuck and it's activating those "not good enough" feelings.
You might feel lost, discouraged, and anxious about what's next. Something just doesn’t feel right and the old ways of coping, performing, or pushing through just aren’t working anymore. Deep down, you know that something needs to shift.

I integrate somatic (body-based), EMDR, mindfulness, cognitive, and parts work therapies.

Your relationship started with excitement, shared dreams, and emotional closeness, but over time life's pressures resulted in feeling overwhelmed and burntout. When connection in partnership is interrupted or unattended, needs go unmet, are misunderstood, or ignored. I understand how these patterns can result in loneliness, despair, and hurt. If this sounds true, then together we will cultivate emotional stability and a sense of belonging by breaking free from negative cycles and repetitive relationship wounds. Let's turn the focus towards what is meaningful and take the bold steps to realign values and hearts to what is important.
