In therapy, we work to untangle the knots that stifle connection and growth. I bring a curious, creative, and collaborative stance to the practice of therapy, with an aim to expand awareness and deepen understanding. I am particularly attuned to help people struggling with the impact of trauma, anxiety, life and career transitions, creative blocks, and parenthood. I hold space that is deeply informed by cultural sensitivity and allyship. We will work together to loosen the grip of worries and help you feel more connected to your needs and goals.
My style is relational, psychodynamic, and steeped in the understanding that trauma impacts both mind and body. I believe our stories are shaped by structures of power, language, and context. Therapy is an active, improvisational process that has a transformative potential to re-shape your relationship to yourself and others.
Whether new to therapy or returning, I will support you in strengthening self-compassion and expanding your capacity for growth. I enjoy working with adults, couples, and children. Reach out to schedule a consultation, and we can begin the conversation.
