You may be feeling disconnected—from yourself, from others, or from the life you want to be living. Perhaps you’re struggling to set boundaries, feeling stuck in repetitive relationship dynamics, or seeking to understand and heal past relational or childhood trauma. These experiences can leave you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of how to move forward.
I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can explore your story, reconnect with your sense of self, and heal at a pace that feels right for you. Together, we can begin to make sense of your experiences, support your nervous system, and cultivate self-compassion, clarity, and lasting change.
My approach is rooted in psychodynamic psychotherapy—a depth-oriented, relational, and long-term method that gently explores how your past experiences shape your current thoughts, feelings, and relationships. Our work invites honest reflection, allowing deeper emotions and patterns to surface, and supporting the integration of those insights into your daily life.
This is trauma-informed therapy that honors your inner wisdom and protective patterns. Our work is grounded in respect, safety, and curiosity. Whether you’re navigating relational challenges, healing from trauma, or seeking to live more authentically, you’re welcome here—just as you are.
Weekly or biweekly sessions are recommended to support meaningful, sustained growth. If you feel ready to begin this work, I invite you to reach out.
