A Little About Me

I'm a former tech worker turned therapist who loves working with people who feel things really deeply. Do you cry at the smallest things? Snap at people you care about? Worry endlessly about things that haven't even happened yet? Maybe you feel numb when you think you should feel something, or overwhelmed by emotions you can't name. You might notice the same painful patterns showing up in your relationships over and over—choosing unavailable partners, pushing people away, feeling like you're never enough.

I specialize in long-term, relational, depth therapy for adults healing from developmental and relational trauma. This means we explore early attachment wounds and childhood experiences that shape how you relate to yourself and others today—and how those patterns can change. In therapy, we build a real relationship where we can look at what's coming up in your daily life, your past, and between us in the present moment. This is the deeper work. Not a quick fix, but lasting change.

I'm direct, I'm warm, and I'll meet you where you are—while also being honest when something's worth looking at more closely.
