Getting a new therapist can be intimidating and—let's be real—a major pain. I'm so glad you've found me. I bring compassion, humor, and warmth to our sessions. I ask that you bring your whole self, whatever that means on any given day. Together, we'll explore and stay curious about how you see and understand the world.
I work relationally and psychodynamically with an attachment-based lens, which means that I care about how your issues from past experiences and relationships are impacting you today. I'm a fan of using psychoeducation to demystify the process of therapy.
I'm here to help you get to the root of your problems. Sometimes you'll need me to listen, and other times you'll need me to push and challenge you. Either way, I'll show up with my undivided attention and respect.

I use a mix of modalities depending on what you need and what you've been through. I believe at getting to the root of issues and building a holistic understanding of why we do the things we do instead of solely focusing on quick fixes.
