I work with people who spend a lot of time in their own heads—worrying about what others think, second-guessing themselves, and feeling unsure about what they want. Many are navigating anxiety, burnout, depression, or a shift in identity. Some are parents, teachers, or nurses, trying to care for themselves while caring for others. Some are young adults, trying to build a life outside of their childhood home. Some are recovering from childhood relational trauma. Others can’t quite name what’s wrong—only that they feel stuck. No matter the story, we start from where you are and work toward a life that feels more like yours.

Teens come to therapy for all kinds of reasons—sometimes it’s to untangle school or social stuff they don’t feel comfortable talking about with anyone else. Other times, therapy includes parents too, because teens are still deeply connected to the systems around them. We might meet as a family, or I might work with you as the parent to help support what your teen is going through. But this space belongs to the teen first—nothing is shared without consent, unless there’s a safety concern. As a former teacher, I know trust and safety are everything. Therapy with teens might include talk, art, sand tray work, or simply quiet time to make sense of things at their own pace.

I work with couples who feel stuck in the same kinds of conflicts—where the topic changes, but the feelings and reactions stay painfully familiar. Maybe one of you shuts down when things get tense, while the other gets louder, desperate to be heard. Maybe you're both longing for closeness, but can’t seem to figure out how to get there without setting each other off.

I often work with couples who care deeply for one another but have lost their way when it comes to communicating. Some come from families where emotions weren’t talked about. Others feel like roommates, not partners, and want to find their way back to connection. In our sessions, we’ll make space for both of you and begin to shift the patterns that are keeping you apart.
