I’m the therapist people find when things feel “too much”, too complicated, too stuck, or too long ignored. I work best with challenging cases because I don’t shy away from the hard stuff: patterns that keep repeating, relationships that won’t shift, emotions that show up like tidal waves. I’m open, straightforward, and never judgmental. You’ll always know where you stand with me, no jargon, no sugarcoating, and no pretending. My approach is Gestalt: present-focused, experiential, and deeply human. We pay attention to what’s happening right now your thoughts, body, emotions, and the space between us, so we can see your patterns. Intense emotions (anxiety, anger, shame) that spike fast or linger Repeating conflict in relationships; weak or wobbly boundaries Attachment wounds, complex/relational trauma, or family-of-origin stress Feeling split between who you are and how you act (values vs. habits) High-functioning on the outside, exhausted or disconnected inside If you’re reading this because things feel heavy, hi. I’m glad you’re here. Reaching out can be awkward, scary, or just… a lot. You don’t have to have the perfect words. You don’t have to explain everything at once. I’ll meet you with openness, straightforward feedback, and zero judgment.
