Great to meet you!

I work with "insightfully exhausted" individuals who feel stuck in a cycle of different problems, same cause. Whether you are navigating the echoes of a difficult childhood or the weight of complex trauma, you’ve likely realized that surface-level coping isn't enough. You aren't just looking to manage symptoms like anxiety or emotional numbing; you’re looking to understand the journey that created them. You are ready to stop fixing the pieces and start healing the root.

My approach to therapy

As a Root Therapist, I bridge the gap between deep insight and daily survival. We use Psychodynamic & Attachment work to heal the "where, when, and why" of your pain, while DBT & CBT provide immediate stability. By treating the origin, not just the symptoms, we build a permanent resilience that stays with you long after therapy ends.

What you can expect from me

The first session is all about building a foundation of safety and trust. We will go at your pace as we explore your history and what you hope to change. I view this as a collaborative 'consultation' where we see if my style feels like a good fit for your needs. You can expect a non-judgmental space where your story is respected, and by the end of the hour, we’ll have a clear starting point for your healing journey.
