People I work with come to me feeling stuck - second-guessing every decision, replaying conversations in their heads, or feeling like they’ve lost touch with the version of themselves they want to be. Sometimes it’s a big life change, sometimes it’s a quiet, constant heaviness, and sometimes it’s the grief of losing someone - human or animal - who meant everything. My style is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in the belief that connection is one of the most powerful tools for healing. ...

We all, at times, encounter periods of pain or discomfort related to relationships, work, responsibilities or our inner sense of self. It takes courage, trust, and a certain amount of hope to reach out for help by initiating therapy. My approach to therapy is rooted in psychodynamic theory. I take seriously the task of understanding the unique narrative of your life, carefully listening to and reflecting on your experiences to unravel how they've sculpted you into the person you are today. Toget...

“Therapy can be many things: a space for unpacking, for healing, for curiosity, for laughter, for saying things you’ve never said out loud. My goal is to co-create a space where you can bring your full self, including the parts still in process. I work with adults navigating questions of identity, anxiety, life transitions, trauma, race-based stress, relationship challenges, and that deep sense of “something needs to shift.” As a Black woman, I’m particularly drawn to working with those whose...
