SERVICES

Many of my clients arrive feeling uncertain about who they are. They often feel uncomfortable in relationships, yet at the same time, uneasy being alone. They may worry that speaking honestly would lead to conflict, or rejection. Despite being thoughtful and self-aware, they feel stuck—repeating difficult relationship patterns, overthinking their choices, and struggling to find emotional clarity or follow-through in what is important to them. Some notice swings between impulsivity and withdrawal, moodiness, or dissatisfaction with how they manage stress. Others are navigating career uncertainty, major transitions, or a sense that their life no longer fits, without a clear sense of how to move forward meaningfully. Many of my clients come to therapy after trying other approaches that have been somewhat helpful, but didn’t fully resolve what they were struggling with, so they describe lingering feelings of anxiety and/or depression as a result.

My approach is insight-oriented and grounded in helping you function more fully in your daily life – not to just feel better temporarily. We work together to develop your self-awareness and understand the emotional meaning behind your experiences; especially where life feels confusing, immovable, or misaligned. Rather than pushing past ambivalence or resistance, I treat them as valuable guides, helping us uncover the beliefs and patterns that shape your relationships, choices, and stress responses. I pay close attention to recurring emotional and relational themes, including anxiety that doesn’t quite make sense, to understand where disconnection from yourself may be present. I believe that lasting change comes from this understanding so the work we do is meant to be meaningful, sustainable, and deeply rooted, not just symptom-focused.

 I have been in practice for over 10 years. Over these years, I’ve had the privilege of working with people from all walks of life, each offering a unique perspective on the human condition, and each requiring a flexible and nuanced approach. I’m eclectic and thoughtful in my work, and I begin each session where you are because life rarely unfolds linearly. I bring presence and depth to our work by offering honesty and openness with care and respect for your process. My goal is to help you turn insight into action so the understanding we develop together translates into real, lasting, movement-focused and meaning-driven change. In our work, you’ll find a space where exploration, curiosity and self-discovery are not just encouraged- they are central to how growth and change happen.

This spirit of freedom, awakening, possibility, and empowerment is at the heart of my practice—and why I chose to call it The Search for Higher Ground.
