I’m a therapist, a naturally curious person, and someone who has always been interested in what lives underneath the obvious answer. I don’t believe therapy is about “fixing”anyone.
I’m much more interested in understanding how you became who you are, what your mind and body learned along the way, and which of those strategies are still serving you, and which ones may now be keeping you stuck.
My work tends to live in that space between what you know and what you feel.
I’m warm, collaborative, and genuinely curious about how your internal world works.
I also won’t pretend not to notice something simply because it might be uncomfortable to explore. We can notice those moments together without forcing anything.
My approach is depth-oriented, somatically informed, trauma-informed, and integrative.
I draw from Brainspotting, parts-oriented work, attachment theory, somatic awareness, psychodynamic exploration, mindfulness, and cognitive approaches depending on what seems useful for you.
Brainspotting is an especially important part of my work. I became drawn to it because there are experiences that can be difficult to reach through conversation alone, and Brainspotting gives us another way of listening.
Some sessions may involve talking and making connections. Others may involve noticing what is happening in your body, slowing something down, working with different internal parts, sitting with something that does not yet have words, or discovering that what seemed like the problem was actually protecting you from something deeper.
I work with adults who often understand themselves quite well. You may already know why you react the way you do. You may recognize your patterns, understand where they came from, and have done a lot of work on yourself. And yet, something still isn’t shifting. Because sometimes understanding something intellectually and actually experiencing it differently are two very different things.
I don’t expect you to perform vulnerability. You don’t need to cry. You don’t need to know exactly what you feel. And you definitely don’t need to arrive with a perfectly organized explanation of what is happening. We can start with what is there.
My hope is that you feel comfortable enough to be honest, including when you disagree with me, when something doesn’t resonate, when you are not ready to go somewhere, or when you have absolutely no idea what you are feeling.
Those moments are part of the work too.
