About My Clients

My passion is working with adults to overcome life's challenges that can feel heavy and exhausting. I specialize in helping people who are struggling with carrying the weight of the world on their shoulders, experiencing persistent grief, or feeling stuck in a place of dread, ick, or overwhelming worry and fear. Clients I work with typically look like they have it all together on the outside, but on the inside, things feel off, and they're not sure where to start.

My Background and Approach

Together, we’ll navigate the parts that feel stuck, hypercritical, depressed, and anxious. I’ll help guide you through learning valuable skills for healing these parts, managing overwhelming emotions, and dealing with stress. We will meet virtually in the comfort of your own space to navigate the sticky and begin building a more fulfilling and joyful life.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

My hope is that therapy with me feels like a safe place to be yourself, to explore your world freely, and to help find practical ways forward to living your best life yet.
