Are you feeling trapped in a cycle of depression, anxiety, trauma, and self-doubt? Do you find yourself on autopilot, yearning to achieve and maintain positive changes in your life intentionally? Perhaps you're constantly replaying painful memories or feeling overwhelmed by fears and worries about the future. If you're ready to confront the effects of trauma, let go of draining relationships, and learn practical skills to strengthen your connections with others, I am here to help.

Welcome! I have a passion for building strong therapeutic relationships. I want to help you feel better, improve your personal relationships and navigate life's challenges.

I take an approach to therapy that is based on your personal needs and goals. You'll dictate what direction we move in therapy, while I'll pull from a variety of evidence-based treatments to help you reach your goals.

Clients often tell me they feel both deeply understood and gently challenged in our work. You won’t be met with quick fixes or surface-level advice. Instead, I offer a grounded, relational space where we can slow down, get curious, and make sense of the patterns—emotional, relational, historical—that are shaping your current struggles. I’m especially attuned to the inner lives of high-achieving adults: those who appear competent on the outside but feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or unseen underneath.

I’m trained in psychodynamic therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and EMDR, and I approach each client with a blend of clinical precision and emotional presence. You can expect warmth, honesty, and an active collaboration toward lasting emotional change.
