My Approach
I offer a flexible and organic therapeutic experience that addresses a wide range of emotional concerns, including anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, anger, fear, and creative or sexual blockages. My practice is rooted in the "here and now" — the present moment — where we can bring to light what has been hidden beneath the surface. By uncovering and understanding these underlying issues, we can begin to reclaim your inner strength and make choices that align with your authentic self.
Drawing from the work of Fritz Perls, Irvin Yalom, Rollo May, and Stanislav Grof, I help you explore the emotional burdens you've internalized — the feelings, beliefs, and patterns that no longer serve you. Together, we will peel back the layers of pain, working toward a deeper, more genuine expression of who you are.
I am proud to provide a safe and affirming space for people of all gender identities, sexual orientations, and relationship configurations. The freedom to love whom and how you choose is your birthright, and I support clients navigating the complexities that can arise in these choices, whether it’s boredom, jealousy, intimacy challenges, or emotional and sexual fulfillment.
This work can be challenging. Confronting buried emotions isn’t always easy, but it’s key to growth. My goal is to help you become more aware of what you’re feeling, what you’re doing, and how — and from there, empower you to either make changes or find peace with your choices. With greater awareness comes the potential for deep, lasting transformation. At the same time, we focus on accepting and validating who you are, right now, in this moment.
I believe that we are constantly creating and recreating ourselves and our experiences. Often, this happens without conscious awareness, leading to suffering and self-deception. In our work together, we’ll explore the felt experience of the moment — what’s truly surfacing — and develop a deeper awareness of it. This deeper awareness minimizes self-deception and opens the door to more authentic living.
At the heart of this process is the human need to love and be loved. Many of us carry wounds from past relationships, and it’s in relationship that much of our healing can take place. In therapy, the relationship we build together becomes a space for exploring connection, boundaries, and vulnerability. By understanding where anxiety, protection, and resistance surface in relationship, we can begin to heal those wounds and create healthier, more meaningful connections.
