We rarely come to therapy with one clearly defined struggle. What feels like one thing can be tangled up with another, and even when we have a familiar name for what we are going through, that name tells only part of the story. Relationships, culture, past experiences, and even the state of the world can shape how a struggle is uniquely felt. Therapy can be a space to slow down, understand the fuller story, and consider where you would like to go from here.
My approach combines attentive exploration with practical, collaborative support. I draw from client-centered, depth-oriented, mindfulness-based, and solution-focused approaches, while remaining attentive to trauma, culture, and the whole person. I work to create a steady and caring space that supports your own capacity for healing and change. I respect the trust and vulnerability involved in beginning therapy and work to honor your experience without reducing it to a label or formula. Together, we can shape goals that are meaningful to you and sustainable in your daily life, and build on the strengths and resources you already bring.
Before training as a therapist, I worked in publishing and education. I am also a mother, a Buddhist, and a passionate reader. These parts of my life invite me to approach each encounter with curiosity, humility, and creativity, as my work with clients continues to teach me to do.
