As a therapist, I bring warmth, curiosity, and a deeply human presence into the room. I want therapy to feel like a space where you can finally exhale - where you don’t have to perform, explain yourself, or defend who you are. Your story is met with gentleness, respect, and deep listening.
I work with youth, adults, and parents navigating anxiety, grief, trauma, identity shifts, relationship struggles, substance use challenges, pregnancy and postpartum experiences, and major life transitions. Many of the people I work with feel disconnected from themselves or overwhelmed by the weight of what they are carrying.
My practice is rooted in existential and feminist phenomenological approaches and informed by somatic therapy. Together, we explore your emotions, relationships, body, and inner world with compassion and curiosity - not to “fix” you, but to help you reconnect with yourself, clarify what matters most, and move toward a life that feels more meaningful and authentic.
I came to this work through both professional training and lived experience. Experiences of motherhood, trauma, hyperemesis gravidarum, neurodivergence, and over a decade working in harm reduction and addiction services have deeply shaped the way I hold space for others. I believe people are doing the best they can with the resources available to them, and that healing often begins when we no longer have to carry our pain alone.
