Great to meet you!

Something happened, and even if life has moved on around you, part of you is still carrying it. I work with people navigating trauma, loss, anxiety, and the kind of identity questions that don't have easy answers — the ones that come up when you're trying to figure out who you are after something has shifted. My practice is built for people who are ready to stop managing and start actually healing.

My approach to therapy

Our work together is rooted in understanding not just what happened, but how it lives in you now — in your relationships, your sense of self, your nervous system. We move at your pace, and I draw on a range of approaches so our sessions feel fitted to you rather than one-size. Many of my clients come in feeling stuck in patterns they can't explain, and leave with a clearer story about themselves and real tools for when things get hard. I especially love working with people processing grief and loss, or who are in the middle of a major identity shift and need a place to think it through.

What you can expect from me

The first session is mostly a conversation. I want to hear what's going on in your words, understand what you've already tried, and get a sense of what you're hoping for. There's no pressure to have it all figured out before we talk. If any of this sounds like what you've been looking for, I'd love to connect.
