About

Do you feel exhausted from pretending to be the person you think you have to be just to be accepted? Do you wonder why, no matter how hard you try, you’re not the version of yourself you long to be? If these questions resonate with you, you’re in the right place. I specialize in helping clients navigate a world that can feel overwhelming yet distant. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you can drop the mask you’ve been holding up for so long. I’m a careful listener who encourages slowing down and sitting with whatever feelings arise because that’s where the real work begins. As a clinician at Grounded Therapy PLLC, I provide compassionate, eclectic psychotherapy with an anti-racist, LGBTQIA+ affirming, trauma-informed, and neurodivergent-informed lens. I draw from psychodynamic and psychoanalytic theory, CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), and IFS (Internal Family Systems), tailoring my approach to each client’s unique needs.
