I remember my own experience meeting my new therapist. I was anxious to talk to a new person. I did not know if I would make sense. I did not want to feel judged. I remember feeling lost and hopeless. The only thing I knew was that I wanted to change the bad feelings and I resisted to believe that there was something wrong with me. I wanted someone who could guide me to understand my world and myself. I wanted a safe space. I needed to find someone who could collaborate with me in changing and resisting. I did not want a therapist who treated me as a study object. I just wanted to feel fully human.

Have you ever felt as though it was hard to ask for help, whether it was with something small that happens in life, or perhaps when more complicated situations arise? What about when those distressing thoughts just “pop” into your mind, and the uncomfortable feelings occur? It can be very uncomfortable, and even exhausting, to try to cope with those thoughts and feelings. Maybe you’ve fallen into some habits that you would like to talk about and understand better, or even change but are unsure about how to start. Or maybe you’re going through a significant loss or a change. Do you feel like you just aren’t yourself these days?

We are living through a collective trauma. This rapidly shifting sociopolitical environment raises existential concerns, challenges security, and calls priorities into question.

Trauma can take many forms, often leaving deep wounds that influence how we think, feel, and interact with the world. Each person's life experience is unique, influenced by their childhood, relationships, and personal circumstances. I specialize in supporting those who have experienced trauma, specifically complex trauma or those who have grown up in emotionally neglectful or immature environments. If you're struggling with perfectionism, feelings of shame, attachment-related concerns, or even challenges in setting healthy boundaries, I provide a space where you can be vulnerable and feel genuinely understood, validated, and heard.

I am a warm, collaborative psychotherapist who provides therapy as a space for curious people to get to know and accept themselves in a deeper way. The people who come to work with me are seeking clarity, support and courage. They have an overshadowing sense that something is “off” - whether it be a relationship (familial, platonic, professional, or romantic), a career, or a looming life decision - and are unsure how to shift into a way of navigating the world that simply feels better. Our goal is to help you develop a more intimate self-understanding so that you can learn to move through life in a more grounded and intentional way.

I work collaboratively with them to explore their challenges and difficulties, as well as their joys and successes. I believe that healing happens in supportive relationships. I enjoy building such connections with clients to support them working towards becoming the version of themselves they want to be.

Even if you've done this before, it's not always an easy decision to find a therapist. I appreciate that you're taking this step toward finding someone you feel might be a good fit. Therapy is most successful when a person feels some connection with their therapist. I take a down-to-earth, supportive, conversational approach that, especially at first, helps sessions feel comfortable and allows some time for us to get to know each other. I believe how we see ourselves is rooted in our history and that it can be powerful to identify ways we learned to think about ourselves and others.
