About My Clients
My clients are high-functioning humans who are tired of holding it all together while quietly feeling anxious, burned out, stuck, or emotionally exhausted. They’re insightful, caring, and self-aware—but overthinking, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and old survival patterns keep getting in the way. They come to therapy ready for real change, deeper healing, healthier relationships, and a life that feels more connected, calm, and authentically theirs.
My Background and Approach
My approach to therapy is real, relational, and refreshingly human. I work with people who are great at holding it together on the outside but feel overwhelmed, anxious, burned out, or stuck underneath it all. Therapy with me isn’t about awkward silence or pretending to have it all figured out—it’s a collaborative space where you can show up exactly as you are: messy, self-aware, emotional, skeptical, funny, or completely exhausted. I blend evidence-based approaches like EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, mindfulness, and attachment work with honest conversation, curiosity, humor, and practical tools that actually help in everyday life. Together, we explore the patterns and survival strategies that once protected you but may now be keeping you stuck. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, connected, confident, and free to build a life that feels authentic, meaningful, and fully your own.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe therapy works best when it feels like a real human relationship—not a cold, clinical experience where you feel analyzed under fluorescent lighting. Healing happens when people feel safe enough to laugh, cry, cuss, be awkward, and show up exactly as they are. I believe you aren’t “broken”; you’re exhausted from carrying stress, trauma, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and impossible expectations for way too long. My work is rooted in connection, authenticity, and evidence-based care. I believe in combining real talk, humor, and therapeutic, practical tools to help people create meaningful change—not just survive their lives more efficiently. Boundaries are healthy, self-compassion is a skill, and healing doesn’t mean becoming a different person. It means finally feeling more like yourself again. I also strongly believe in the healing power of dogs, community, hiking, coffee, and occasionally dropping an f-bomb when the moment calls for it.
