Introduction

Life can feel overwhelming in ways that don’t always make sense. Maybe you’re carrying grief, struggling to manage anger or anxiety, or feeling disconnected from the people who matter most. For some people, this shows up during big life changes like becoming a parent, losing someone important, or realizing old ways of coping aren’t working anymore. Therapy with me is about slowing down and making space to look at what’s happening without judgment. Together, we can sort through the reactions that feel automatic like shutting down, pushing through, or losing your temper, and begin to understand what’s underneath. This awareness allows you to align your actions with the person you want to be. This work isn’t about “fixing” you. It’s about building awareness, finding steadier ground, and creating room for curiosity, compassion, and lasting change. I look forward to connecting with you soon.
