You are always becoming the person that you are. My approach to depth psychotherapy starts from this premise. Who a person is and how they come to understand themselves is an on-going life-long process. There are times in life when that process is disrupted and as a consequence, we suffer—struggling to locate ourselves and find our way forward. That suffering is best alleviated through collaborative understanding and insight building. In this way, my approach is a holistic one—as I see each individual as a sum of their total life experiences rather than a collection of symptoms.

I offer Telehealth and in person appointments.
Drawing from a blend of expressive art therapy, neuroscience, and evidence based treatments, I help individuals gain better understanding of the space between their ears. Since an early age, I've been fascinated with human consciousness and am passionate about looking at the ways in which we communicate our internal experiences with one another. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Registered Art Therapist I am rooted in supporting folks with OCD, PTSD, and anxiety. I am additionally trained in psychedelic assisted therapy, which is a useful tool for folks who wish to integrate non ordinary states of consciousness.

Many clients come to me feeling stuck in unsatisfying relationships. They crave deeper connections with their partners or parents, but despite expressing their needs, nothing seems to change. They often find themselves caught in cycles of frustration, vowing not to get angry or to "just let things go," only to feel overwhelmed again. Emotions like anxiety, anger, or sadness can feel unmanageable, and triggered by small or unexpected events. This often leads to ongoing conflicts, leaving them confused and insecure. Even if things seem normal by morning, the cycle of misunderstanding and tension continues.

We do not become who we are in a vacuum, but instead develop in relation to our family, culture, and context. We may not be responsible for the experiences that shape us, but we can take responsibility for how they impact us moving forward. Pursuing therapy is an important step towards developing an understanding of and appreciation for your past while putting yourself in the driver's seat for how you move forward. I work with people from a variety of backgrounds and enjoy helping clients increase their confidence and self-awareness to achieve greater fulfillment in life.

Are you and your co-founder and business partner on the verge of a transition or expansion? You’ve put in tremendous effort to build your business, overcoming countless obstacles. While you’re proud of your achievements, the long hours and dedication have taken a toll on you both. You want your business to have a greater impact, but you're also fearful of losing the original spirit and dream as the expansion gains momentum. Before moving forward, address the cracks in the foundations of your business and partnership, and further grow your capacities. Misalignments make transitions and expansions even more difficult and complicated.
