Great to meet you!

I have big reactions. I’m not the type of therapist who just nods and asks, “how does that make you feel?” I’m expressive, emotionally honest, and unafraid to challenge you when you need it. I see therapy as a space for truth-telling, reclaiming your parts, and learning how to stay present with your life... even the parts you wish you could fast forward through.

My approach to therapy

I work with people who love big, feel deeply, and think hard about their place in the world. Maybe you’re the one who over-functions in relationships. Maybe you’re the one who stays, even after betrayal. Maybe you’re burnt out on being offered another worksheet or coping skill instead of really getting what you’re carrying.

What you can expect from me

The first session is a mix of getting to know you and helping you get a feel for how I work. We’ll talk about what’s bringing you in, what matters to you, and what you want to feel or understand differently. I’ll ask questions, offer reflections, and invite your honesty about whether it feels like a good fit. You don’t need to have the perfect way to explain how things are, just come as you are.
