In our process, as you work towards sharing whatever is on your mind, we listen, think, and feel together, paying attention to patterns that may echo your past and our broader sociopolitical context. We explore what may be difficult to think or feel through on your own—a process that can lead to deepened self-understanding, more curiosity, and new ways of relating with your internal and external worlds. This work can help you feel more spontaneous, more connected to yourself, to others, to your desires and fears, and can lead to new possibilities for intentional choices.

I'm deeply passionate about the mental health field and committed to providing trauma-informed care that honors each person's unique story and resilience. I believe in the power of connection, presence, and authenticity in the healing process.

Each day, you support vulnerable people at their worst, but now something within you feels broken—crushed by chronic stress, relentless demands, and hostile systems that undermine your efforts—and help seems out of reach. You might feel consumed by worry, unable to disconnect, and never fully present at home. Or, your own body might be rebelling against you, with chronic pain that worsens each day. You may be facing an impossible choice: between your work and everything else. With over a decade of experience in state-funded human services, I’ve been there, too. I specialize in helping professionals like you navigate these struggles.
I offer practical, trauma-sensitive, confidential therapy to professionals who help others (e.g., public defenders, healthcare workers, and therapists). Together, we’ll sort through the chaos, clarify your priorities, and use concrete strategies to repair what matters most, so you can live out your own vision of a full, meaningful life.
