About

Effective therapy allows you to grieve the person you might have been if you had been treated with care earlier in life—and then helps you keep living anyway. Therapy isn’t about endlessly revisiting the past; it’s about understanding it, honoring what was lost, and deciding how you want to live now. My work is grounded in Existential and Reality Therapies. Together, we face the limits, losses, and choices that shape a life, and then focus on what you can take responsibility for today. Good therapy is a grounded, honest conversation about the life you’re actually living—and the decisions that shape what comes next. I offer grounded, reality-based therapy for people feeling stuck in life and who desire to move forward. Together, we face the hard truths of the life that didn't happen and take responsibility for building a meaningful life-without endless rumination, ideology, or endless rumination about the past.
