Introduction

Do you feel caught between what other people expect of you and what you actually want? Maybe you're trying to untangle complicated family relationships, struggling with emotions that feel overwhelming, or noticing the same patterns showing up in your life despite your best efforts to change them. You might feel deeply connected to the people in your life while also feeling misunderstood by them. Whether you're navigating anxiety, complex trauma, identity struggles, or simply trying to figure out who you are outside of everyone else's expectations, I'd love to help you make sense of it all. I enjoy working with deep feelers, people navigating family-of-origin and intergenerational trauma, and clients experiencing intense emotions or complicated relationships, including those with BPD. My approach blends genuine warmth with thoughtful honesty to help you understand your patterns, build emotional regulation skills, and make the change you desire. I'm a conversational, curious, and collaborative therapist who believes people are far more interesting and complex than any label can capture. I'll take your feelings seriously, offer new perspectives, and gently challenge you when it might help. I'm not here to simply agree with you, but I'll always be on your team.
