About

Seeking counseling is a deeply personal and courageous step, and I’m so grateful for the chance to walk alongside you. I believe fully experiencing our emotions - even the difficult ones - is essential for growth and healing. Each of us holds a deep well of emotional wisdom, yet experiences of harm, neglect, or trauma can block our access to it. Together, we can create an environment of trust and curiosity to help reopen those pathways, process painful life experiences, and build the tools we all need to form healthy, secure relationships with ourselves and others. I practice Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT), an evidence-based approach that helps you access emotions, recognize unhelpful patterns, and create new ones that better serve you. EFIT supports clients facing a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, low self-worth, sexual trauma, histories of abuse, painful relationships, and loneliness.
