Is Individual therapy for you?

Feeling lost, scared, or stuck? Finding it hard to love yourself or feeling lonely? Unhappy with your relationships? Reaching goals but still not happy?

You’re in the right place. Your feelings matter, and I'll handle them with the utmost care.

My approach blends psychodynamic therapy, attachment theory, trauma-informed care, and relational psychoanalysis. I have experience helping clients with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, family dynamics, relationships, chronic pain, and grief.

My goal is to create a therapeutic space that feels both challenging and safe as we work towards your goals. We'll identify core beliefs and work through any self-limiting or self-destructive behaviors to understand how they impact your current struggles. I'll make space for you to process your emotions and provide the support and tools you need to make lasting changes in your life.

Have you read tons of self-help books or constantly listen to personal growth podcasts but still don’t feel better?

While books and podcasts can be helpful, they never quite match the power of working with a therapist. After all, we are human. And as humans, there’s an intrinsic need for a relational connection to another human. This is especially true when it comes to unlearning patterns and receiving a corrective experience that is truly healing.

The key difference is that therapy is built on the genuine empathy and personalized attention a therapist provides. This therapeutic relationship is crucial for processing difficult emotions and creating lasting, meaningful changes. It's in this safe, supportive space that a therapist can offer the human connection, insights, and tailored experiences each person needs.
