individual therapy

Most of the people I work with individually are navigating some version of the same thing: a gap between how they appear to the world and how they actually feel inside. They're anxious, stuck, self-critical, or quietly disconnected — and they're curious enough to want to understand why.

In individual therapy, we slow down and look at the patterns — in your relationships, your emotions, your inner critic, your defenses — and start to make sense of them. I draw from attachment theory, IFS, EMDR, psychodynamic therapy, and systems thinking, tailoring the work to you rather than fitting you into a model. The relationship between us is the foundation of everything.

I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, relationship issues, family dynamics, identity questions, shame, self-worth, life transitions, and the complex inner lives that don't fit neatly into a diagnosis. I am experienced working with LGBTQ individuals and am committed to affirming, culturally sensitive care.

Young Adults

Teen & Family therapy

Working with young adults is one of the most energizing parts of my practice. This is the stage where everything is in motion — identity, relationships, career, family roles, the gap between the life you imagined and the one you're actually living. It's a lot to hold.

My young adult clients are at all different points — some in college, some not, some just starting out, some already questioning the path they chose. What they tend to have in common is being outwardly capable and driven but internally anxious, overwhelmed, or unsure of who they actually are when they stop performing for everyone else.

Doing this work now doesn't mean you're behind. It means you're paying attention.

couples Therapy

Most couples don't fight about what they think they're fighting about. Underneath the content of most arguments is an attachment need that isn't getting through — a bid for connection that gets lost in the cycle. My job is to help you find it.

My couples work is informed by Emotionally Focused Therapy, which means I focus less on communication techniques and more on the emotional process underneath conflict. We look at the cycle — the pursue-withdraw, the escalation, the shutdown — and work to understand what each partner is actually trying to say when things go sideways.

I work with couples of all kinds and at all stages — whether you're navigating a specific rupture, a pattern that keeps repeating, or a slow drift toward disconnection. The work is the same: building enough safety to be honest, and enough trust to be vulnerable.

Adolescence is one of the most psychologically complex periods of life. With technology filling every quiet moment, teenagers rarely get the space they need to actually make sense of what they're feeling.

I work with teens in a way that doesn't feel like interrogation. There's room for humor, indirection, and meeting them where they are — whether that's talking directly about what's going on or finding a different way in. I'm particularly drawn to working with adolescent boys and young men who may resist more traditional therapy formats.

I also work with families when the system itself needs attention — when patterns have developed over years and everyone is stuck in roles that no longer serve them. Sometimes the most helpful thing is having someone in the room who can see the whole picture.
