Therapy doesn't have to feel sterile. I'm human in the room, and I'll probably curse. I'll validate you, challenge you when needed, and sometimes hold up a mirror that may be difficult to look at. I believe meaningful therapy requires honesty, curiosity, and space to be yourself. I work with women navigating anxiety, relationships, life transitions, and the expectations they've placed on themselves or carried for years. You don't need to know exactly what's wrong or where to begin. Part of our work is developing a better understanding of yourself, recognizing patterns, and figuring out what you need moving forward. My approach is direct, collaborative, and experiential. We might explore how past experiences influence your reactions today, notice what happens when difficult emotions come up, or use creative exercises to understand something that feels hard to put into words. I also believe the work continues outside our sessions, so we'll identify practical ways to apply what you're learning in everyday life.
