Healing at your pace.

Whether you’re diving in or just testing the waters, you’re welcome here. Therapy isn’t about having it all figured out—it’s about having a space to be real, to breathe, and to sort through the messy, human stuff. When you're ready, book your first session or log into your client portal below.

About

You are not "too much," you're just carrying too much.

Being human is... a lot. One minute you're coasting, the next you're spiraling at 3 a.m., wondering if you said something weird in a conversation three years ago. Maybe you're carrying grief, untangling trauma, or just trying to function when life feels like an ongoing dumpster fire. Whatever brought you here, you don’t have to figure it out alone. Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you—because you’re not broken. It’s about creating space to actually breathe, feel, and understand yourself without the constant pressure to perform, please, or power through. With a mix of somatic therapies (IFS, EMDR) and good old-fashioned talking-it-out, I help deep feelers, overthinkers, and the quietly overwhelmed find relief, clarity, and a sense of self again. No forced positivity, no awkward small talk—just real support from someone who gets it. If you're exhausted from carrying it all alone, let's figure out how to set some of it down.
