About
You don’t have to have it all figured out. Life can feel heavy—carrying old wounds, anxious thoughts, or a voice inside that’s always so critical. Maybe you’ve learned to protect yourself by hiding parts of who you are just to get through. I focus on exploring how your story and relationships have shaped you, while creating space to heal old wounds and connect more fully with yourself and others. Together, we’ll move at a pace that feels right for you—toward greater peace, understanding, and more fulfilling relationships. In our work together, we’ll look at how past experiences shape the present and explore the patterns that keep showing up in your life or relationships. I draw from psychodynamic therapy, IFS, EFT, and DBT to support you in finding new ways of relating to yourself. Healing happens not by “fixing,” but by understanding yourself more fully.
