I've been a therapist since 2010, working with people in a wide range of situations and settings, doing individual, group, and family therapy. I am currently embedded at Learning Solutions in Northampton offering in-person individual therapy and assessment for adults. If you've been in therapy, or are brand new - welcome! All parts of you are welcome: visible, invisible, messy, shy, smart, weird, silent, and emerging. My aim is to create a collaborative, safe, challenging, and rewarding space to talk, explore, grieve, heal, and learn and practice new skills - so you can start feeling better and making changes.
We can explore and integrate a recent evaluation or diagnosis, or broadly consider who you are, how you got to where you are, and how you navigate the world, as both an individual and part of a bigger web. I take a relational and present-focused approach, and believe that culture, meaning, power, and context always matter.
Clients have said I have a warm and authentic style, can be both fun and irreverent, and attentive and direct, tailoring therapy to their style and needs. Let's set up a brief call to see if working together would be a good fit, for short- or longer-term therapy. I look forward to connecting.

My style in sessions emphasizes integrating how experiences in the past and in the culture, and aspects of your personality and neurobiology, influence your experiences and challenges in the present. Some technical terms for these approaches are psychodynamic, relational, cultural, neuropsychological, and existential-phenomenological.
