Nice to meet you

I work with individuals who feel stuck, exhausted, avoidant, or disconnected—experiencing spiraling thoughts, rumination, intrusive images, self-criticism, sleep issues, or isolation. These can be signs of deeper unresolved issues that block growth and vitality. My approach to therapy is grounded in helping you identify these patterns and begin to shift them. Together, we’ll create space for insight, relief, and sustainable change. Psychotherapy offers a path forward, and you don’t have to navigate it alone.
