Work With Me
My approach, what I treat, how we get started, and everything practical you'd want to know before reaching out.
The approach
I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, trauma, OCD, relationship patterns, and the quieter struggles that are harder to name. My approach is warm and direct — I'll meet you where you are, but I won't just reflect your words back at you.
Real talk, no jargon. You'll always know where we are and why. I don't believe therapy has to feel mysterious or clinical to be effective.
We go toward the hard stuff with genuine interest — not fear. Understanding is often the first step toward change.
I'll tell you what I notice. You deserve a therapist who's direct — one who cares enough to say the hard thing.
We set the agenda together. You're never just sitting there while I analyze you. This is a partnership, not a lecture.
I draw from CBT, somatic approaches, attachment theory, and the Enneagram — not because they're trendy, but because they work together to create lasting change.
"Accurately naming an experience... gives us the power of understanding, meaning, and choice." — Brené Brown, Atlas of the Heart
What I treat
Whether it's constant overthinking, physical tension, or a sense that you're always bracing for something — we'll work to understand what's driving it and build steadier ground. Anxiety often has a story behind it, and understanding that story is part of how things shift.
Whether trauma came from a single event or accumulated quietly over years of childhood experience, we'll gently explore how past experiences are showing up in your present — in your body, your relationships, and your sense of self. No forcing, no rushing.
If intrusive thoughts, rituals, or compulsions are taking up more space than you'd like — there's a reason for that, and there's a path through it. Using ERP (the most well-researched approach for OCD), we'll work gradually and collaboratively to loosen their grip. OCD is highly treatable.
People-pleasing, codependency, conflict avoidance, difficulty trusting — these patterns usually have deep roots. Therapy can help you understand where they came from and begin building relationships that feel safer and more honest.
A supportive space for preteens and teens who need room to reflect and make sense of their world — without judgment, and with genuine care. I work with parents too when it's helpful.
If your sense of self feels fragile or unclear, or you struggle to know who you are outside of what you do for others — this work can help you reconnect with something more grounded. Not a performance, but actually you.
Persistent sadness, low motivation, or feeling disconnected from your own life. We'll work to understand what's underneath and find a path forward that doesn't require you to just "try harder."
