Great to meet you!

It is a strikingly common experience to feel alone in a sea of people. Many of us feel disconnected or helpless, suspecting that others know something we don't, and questioning the health of our relationships. Therapy can offer a safe and protected space to uncover authenticity and practice relating with others in new ways. The therapeutic relationship welcomes mistakes and messy, non-linear narratives in service of growth.

My approach to therapy

Though my therapy practice addresses a range of issues, my main areas of focus are anxiety, life transitions, and trauma. I work with individuals experiencing questions of identity, shame or low self-worth, hypervigilance, and relational issues; and who struggle with trust, vulnerability, decision making, and communication. My work also encompasses spiritual/religious trauma, grief, and body image issues.

What you can expect from me

In our initial sessions, I'll take an informal approach to discover what is most important and relevant to you and our work together--at your pace. From there, I will support you in using your felt experience as a compass to address your needs and goals.

Though seeking therapy can be daunting, the therapeutic relationship and process can be clarifying, reparative, and life-affirming. If you think I may be a fit, I encourage you to reach out. It is a privilege to support and collaborate with you.
