There are moments when the way we have been coping begins to feel too small for the life we are trying to build.

Sometimes this shows up in our relationships, our anxiety, our sense of identity, or the quiet realization that certain patterns are no longer helping us move forward. We may find ourselves wanting to communicate more clearly, repair disconnection, understand old protective habits, or become more honest about what we need.

Therapy can offer a steady place to understand what is happening, name the patterns that keep repeating, and begin making choices that feel more honest, connected, and sustainable.

My work is grounded in existential, person-centered, humanistic, relational, and narrative approaches. This means I am interested not only in what is happening in your life, but in how you have come to understand yourself, your relationships, your choices, and your possibilities.

I believe therapy works best when it helps us become more aware of the patterns we have inherited, repeated, protected ourselves with, or outgrown. Some of those patterns may have helped us survive earlier parts of life. Over time, though, they can begin to limit how we connect, communicate, love, make decisions, or imagine the future.

The therapeutic process offers room to slow things down, understand what is happening more clearly, and begin building new ways of responding to yourself and others. I bring warmth, curiosity, structure, and directness to the therapeutic process. I do not believe therapy needs to be mysterious or overly clinical. It should feel honest, thoughtful, and useful.

I work with individuals and couples navigating relationship stress, identity exploration, anxiety, communication difficulties, major life transitions, LGBTQ+ experiences, and non-traditional relationship structures. Whether you are seeking therapy on your own or with a partner, the goal is not to become someone else. The goal is to become more fully aware of who you are, what you need, and how you want to move forward.

I’m glad you found your way here. Whatever led you to this page, something may be asking for your attention, care, and clarity. Therapy can be a place to begin listening to that more closely.
