The way we connect to others is shaped by the earliest bonds we experienced — or didn’t. Whether you're anxiously seeking closeness, shutting down when things get hard, or stuck in a push-pull dynamic, I help you trace those patterns back to their roots. Together, we untangle the protective strategies you've developed in response to past pain, and create new pathways toward secure, connected, and nourishing relationships

Many couples and individuals feel stuck in repeating cycles — the same arguments, the same shutdowns, the same hurt. These patterns are often fueled by unspoken fears and unmet emotional needs. Through emotionally focused, attachment-based work, I support you in learning how to communicate from a place of honesty and vulnerability rather than reactivity or defense. The goal isn’t just better communication — it’s cultivating emotional safety, repair, and trust.

Sexuality is more than a behavior — it’s a language, a form of expression, and a reflection of how you feel in your body and relationships. Many of us have been disconnected from our erotic selves through trauma, shame, religious conditioning, or performance-based narratives. I offer a space to explore your relationship to pleasure, desire, identity, and intimacy with gentleness and curiosity. This is not about fixing what’s wrong — it’s about returning to your body, voice, and vitality.

Therapy for those reimagining what connection, commitment, and intimacy can look like.

The stories we inherit about relationships are often rigid and binary—you're either single or partnered, loyal or unfaithful, traditional or transgressive. But most people live somewhere in between, trying to make sense of desire, boundaries, autonomy, and belonging in a world that doesn’t offer much guidance.

Whether you’re navigating monogamy, open relationships, polyamory, kink, or something evolving and undefined, my work is about helping you explore and create a relationship structure that feels authentic, attuned, and alive—not performative or prescriptive.

You are not just carrying your own story — you carry the stories, roles, and expectations of those who came before you. Together, we examine your family system with compassion and clarity. We explore inherited dynamics, core wounds, and the unconscious contracts you may still be living by.

Grief is not a problem to solve — it’s a process to move through with care and presence. Whether you're grieving a death, a relationship, a dream, or a former version of yourself, I offer a compassionate space to honor your pain and allow it to transform you. I also work with clients navigating major life transitions — such as parenthood, relocation, aging, identity shifts, or illness — helping them ground, reflect, and reorient during seasons of change.

Living in a world that wasn’t built for your brain can create deep confusion, shame, and emotional exhaustion. Whether you identify with ADHD, autism, HSP, AuDHD, or are still exploring what fits, I offer a space to process your experiences, build self-understanding, and identify what actually works for you. This is not about masking — it’s about integrating your neurodivergent identity in a way that honors your needs, supports your nervous system, and expands your self-trust.

Leaving behind a belief system — or questioning the one you inherited — can feel like losing a part of yourself. I support clients in unpacking religious trauma, purity culture, spiritual abuse, and identity loss. Together, we create space to grieve, untangle, and reimagine who you are without the structures that once defined you. This is sacred work — a reclamation of voice, power, purpose, and values that are truly your own.

Beneath the surface of daily life lives a deeper self — a constellation of inner figures, desires, and patterns waiting to be known. I help clients explore their internal world using frameworks like the Enneagram, Jungian archetypes, parts work (IFS inspired), astrology, tarot, and dreamwork. These symbolic tools don’t box you in — they illuminate your complexity and provide mirrors for growth, healing, and integration. If you feel like parts of yourself are in conflict or you’re longing for more self-alignment, this work helps bridge the inner gaps and return you to your essence.

Across our lives, there are seasons that invite us to pause, reflect, and step into a new chapter—sometimes with excitement, sometimes with grief, often with both. These thresholds can look like turning 30, 40, or 60; getting married or divorced; becoming a parent; launching or closing a business; retiring; or finding your “second mountain” after a career change.
I support clients in navigating these passages with intention and care, honoring the endings that must be acknowledged and the beginnings that are just taking shape. Together, we’ll create space to process what you’re leaving behind, clarify what you’re moving toward, and mark the transition in a way that feels meaningful to you—so you can step forward rooted, clear, and open to what’s next.

Our earliest environments profoundly shape how we learn to see ourselves, others, and the world. When those environments are marked by neglect, inconsistency, or emotional deprivation, we often adapt by minimizing our needs, becoming hyper-independent, or struggling to trust that care will be there for us. These early wounds can show up later as shame, anxiety, or patterns of self-reliance that leave you feeling disconnected. In therapy, we’ll gently uncover those formative experiences, honor the ways you learned to survive, and practice creating new, healthier pathways toward safety, support, and self-compassion.

When family boundaries blur, children often take on roles that belong to adults. You may have been the “little adult” in your household—caretaking, mediating, or carrying responsibility for others’ emotions. This role reversal, sometimes called parentification, can leave you struggling to rest, set boundaries, or accept support in adulthood. Therapy provides space to untangle these dynamics, release the burdens you’ve carried, and clarify the difference between healthy connection and unhealthy responsibility. Together, we’ll strengthen your ability to feel both connected and free, supported and autonomous.

Growing up in a narcissistic or unpredictable family system often means living with criticism, gaslighting, emotional volatility, or the pressure to perform. In these environments, children may lose trust in their own perceptions and learn to silence themselves to maintain harmony. The impact can ripple into adulthood, making it difficult to feel grounded in your worth or confident in your voice. In therapy, we’ll create space to validate your reality, explore how those dynamics continue to affect you, and develop new patterns of protection, boundaries, and self-expression so that you can reclaim your power and thrive.
