You are high-functioning and self-aware, yet something feels off—anxiety, shame, identity confusion, or patterns you can’t seem to shift. Maybe you over-function, shut down, struggle with boundaries, or are untangling faith, sexuality, or attachment wounds. I help teens and adults understand the deeper roots of their struggles, soften the inner critic, process grief, and build a more secure, grounded sense of self—so you can live and relate with clarity and integrity. I specialize in attachment, shame, and identity work. Using IFS and emotion-focused approaches, I help you understand your patterns, untangle religious or relational conditioning, process grief, and strengthen boundaries and self-trust—so you can feel more secure, grounded, and fully yourself. Starting therapy can be daunting. At first, it can feel as exciting as going to the dentist. You'll find that I am an open, easy-to-talk-to person with a knack for quick wit. I respect the space of therapy immensely and will also use humor in our sessions. I look forward to our first conversation!
