My Approach to Helping
My approach is rooted in the belief that healing happens in relationship—with a trusted other, and eventually, with yourself. I help clients identify patterns that no longer serve them and explore where those patterns began. Together, we create space for the parts of you that haven’t had room to be heard, felt, or understood.
While I hold space for deep emotional work, I also offer practical tools you can bring into your everyday life—strategies to regulate your nervous system, navigate relationships, and move through stuck places with more clarity and trust in yourself. I’m warm, direct, and down-to-earth, and I shape our work around who you are—not just what you’re struggling with.
More Info About My Practice
I work with individuals, couples, and parents navigating trauma, attachment wounds, and relationship challenges.
With 18 years of experience, I offer a space where you don’t have to hold it all together, perform, or protect anyone’s feelings—where what’s heavy is named, what’s real is welcomed, and what’s never had room to breathe can finally exhale. I’ll walk alongside you, without rushing your process.
Whether you’re trying to make sense of the hurt behind your patterns, trying to date with intention, or trying to parent in ways that break generational cycles, our work together can help you shift longstanding dynamics and build more secure, connected relationships—with others and with yourself.
Clients often describe me as warm, direct, and down-to-earth. If you’re looking for therapy that offers both depth and practical tools and strategies, let’s connect.

What I Love about Being a Psychotherapist
I?ve always been drawn to what's unspoken--the quiet ache beneath the surface, the patterns we repeat without meaning to, the ways we try to protect ourselves from pain while still longing for connection.
Therapy felt less like a career choice and more like a path I was meant to walk. I believe we all need spaces where we can stop performing, loosen the grip of old survival strategies, and feel what's been waiting to be felt.
There's something sacred about being invited into the deep places. I'm moved again and again by what happens when someone feels seen enough to set down what they've carried alone--and begins to feel more like themself again.
On the Fence About Going to Therapy?
You may be wondering if you can afford or have time for therapy. For therapy to be effective, it requires a commitment of finances and time. I can assure you therapy is one of the best investments you can make. While material things get lost, broken, stolen, or we don't care about them anymore, therapy continues to pay dividends throughout your life. I encourage you to ask yourself, "What is the cost of not going to therapy?"
