About

I work with people who kept the peace by losing themselves. Who learned young that survival meant silence—and they’re finally ready to speak. I work with adults still carrying the scars of childhood trauma. The ones who had to grow up too fast. The ones who were parentified, gaslit, ignored, or used. I work with men who were never allowed to be soft, and women who were told their worth was in their ability to be small, agreeable, and pleasing. I work with people who are angry, anxious, numb, perfectionistic, avoidant, over-functioning—or just deeply, deeply tired. Therapy with me is not about toxic positivity or quick fixes. It’s about unlearning what hurt you and reconnecting to what’s real. It’s about telling the truth—to yourself, maybe for the first time. You don’t have to keep carrying it alone. I am supportive and compassionate when you need care and honest when you need growth.
