areas of focus

I support individuals and couples in understanding their relational patterns, identifying which patterns have become barriers, and finding a self advocacy approach that values allyship over potential adversarial dynamics.
This may include exploration of how you protect yourself when you perceive an emotional threat, how you reach for connection, and what gets in the way
I support mixed neurotype couples by helping deepen each person’s understanding of the other’s communication style, emotional rhythms, sensory needs, and unspoken expectations of the relationship.
The relationship between child and parent is one of the most complex and consequential bonds we carry. I work with adult parent-child pairs navigating shifting roles, boundaries, and the process of balancing adult identities with generational dynamics.

I support clients in tending to the impact of long-term, repeated relational injuries. Together we work to understand emotional survival patterns, restore safety in the nervous system, and build relationships (both internal and external) that feel sturdy and safe.
Achievement can become a survival strategy. Over-functioning may feel necessary, even when it’s exhausting. Together, we work toward building safety that isn’t dependent on constant performance.
I offer a steady space to process the unique pressures of navigating high public visibility, industry inconsistency, and commoditization of self.
I work with individuals who experience emotional intensity, shifting sense of self or identity, or relationship patterns that others may have labeled as a “personality disorder.” Together we look at how these patterns formed and what purpose they once served, while also working to undo the impact of any shame or fear that often comes with this kind of diagnosis.
I work with individuals to decode the internalized, often early-life narratives that may contribute to low self-worth. Through a combined attachment + cognitive lens, we collaboratively build a more grounded and compassionate self-view rooted in clarity, boundaries, and an authentic sense of identity.

I offer a shame-free, trauma-focused approach to substance use and process-based compulsive behaviors (eg, sex, love, shopping, gambling, food, technology, social media). This includes processing early dynamics that may have shaped these behaviors as once-effective coping strategies, redirecting toward healthier regulation techniques, and increasing connection to both self and community.
As a trauma-focused therapist, I draw from evidence-based interventions to support relief of symptoms clients may experience due to a significant traumatic experience, working at a pace that feels safe and manageable.
I support clients in identifying the internal roots of disconnection and emotional suppression that often surface as sadness or loss of interest. Therapy focuses on gently rebuilding hope and motivation while also addressing the relational, emotional, and systemic factors that contribute to depressive symptoms.
I work with individuals experiencing worry, panic, or chronic hypervigilance. In our sessions, we explore the relational roots of anxiety and the hyper-attunement to others’ emotional states, help the nervous system learn to soften, and build tools that support feeling more present, grounded, and capable.
