Embarking on a journey of self-discovery and healing can be both exciting and challenging. I’m here to offer a warm, freeing space where we can build a trusting connection. Together, we’ll utilize curiosity and compassion to explore how your background and upbringing shape how you navigate life transitions, form relationships, grieve, create self-perceptions, and more. Working through relationship issues – whether family, friends, partners, or coworkers – is also often an integral part of our therapeutic work. My style shows my commitment to being my authentic self, blending empathy, curiosity, and a touch of humor into our work together.

Modality and Approach

With compassionate guidance, I hope to empower you to develop the skills needed to heal and thrive. My core method is psychodynamic, which means I value your insights and explore how past experiences shape current feelings and behaviors. I aim to understand your unique inner world, help you expand your capacity for reflection and feeling, and meet you where you are without judgment.

Together, we’ll explore the past to guide the future, while staying present to find solutions.

What is one thing you do daily that supports your mental and emotional well-being?

My two cats make sure I get my daily dose of cuddles, and I especially love to unwind by going for a long run with a good playlist. I also make it a point to spend quality time with friends and engage in something creative each week. Lastly, laughter is a big part of my life, and I love listening to podcasts that bring a smile to my face.
