About My Clients

My practice is grounded in a deep respect for the complexity of the human experience. I work with individuals navigating emotional pain, relational conflict, identity struggles, grief, and the often-overlooked existential questions that arise during major life transitions. Rather than reducing people to symptoms or diagnoses alone, I focus on understanding the full context of their lived experience — their history, relationships, values, and internal narratives.

My Background and Approach

The tools that I'll provide you with are tools that I have been perfecting over my career helping others just like you. I am trained in CBT, EMDR, and somatic-based therapies. So no matter where you go, you'll always have access to discreet exercises that can quickly create relief. I am solution-focused. We'll work collaboratively to address the challenges you are facing right now. We'll start with what's going on in the moment and then how to get control over your body and thoughts so that we can help you become your authentic self.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that everyone can change and grow at any time in their lives. I encourage people to question rigid belief systems and inherited narratives that may no longer serve them. My work often explores themes of loss, attachment, identity, and the search for meaning, helping clients move beyond survival mode and toward a more grounded, authentic way of living. Therapy is approached as a collaborative process — one that values curiosity, honesty, and psychological depth over quick fixes or surface-level change. Life is truly a wild, weird, and beautiful experience. Let's work together to help you find your meaning and your inner peace.
