Hi there! I provide a warm, nonjudgmental space for you to process your feelings and explore patterns. My main goals as a therapist are to help you feel less alone with your emotions and to help you discover what is at the root of your problems. I often work with smart and motivated individuals who feel unfulfilled or anxious despite having achieved various societal markers of success. In our work together, I can help you to navigate life's complexities, develop coping strategies, and build meaningful relationships with yourself and others. Whether you're dealing with relationship challenges, coping with grief, healing from childhood trauma, or processing pet loss, I am here to support you.
