About My Clients

I believe the quality of our lives is shaped by the quality of our relationships, including the one you have with ourselves. You might be in a season of change: divorce or breakup, reinvention, family strain, friendship rupture, or the quiet sense that your life no longer fits. On the outside you may look fine, but inside you feel disoriented, guarded, or stuck in the same patterns. You want clarity, steadiness, self-trust, and a way to stay connected to others without losing yourself.

My Background and Approach

I hold a Master of Fine Arts in Acting from Rutgers University and I’m currently enrolled at Northwestern University in the Clinical Mental Health Master’s program, where I’m completing advanced clinical training with a psychodynamic orientation. I also served in the U.S. military, an experience that shaped my understanding of identity, authority, and what sustained pressure can do to a person over time. My background in performance and high visibility environments informs a nuanced understanding of self-consciousness, shame, and the pull to manage how you are perceived. In therapy, I work relationally and psychodynamically, with attention to attachment, nervous system responses, and the patterns that form around closeness, conflict, and self-worth. I offer a steady, thoughtful space to understand what has been adaptive, what is no longer working, and what becomes possible when you feel safe enough to be more fully yourself.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

The more we can foster and create quality relationships with ourselves, and with others, the better our lives tend to get.
