I work best with clients who value a relational approach and are curious about exploring their inner experience. My clients often want to understand themselves more deeply and transform patterns at their roots. I work with highly sensitive and neurodivergent people, LGBTQIA+ clients, and those navigating anxiety, trauma, codependency, relationship challenges, and life transitions. If you're interested in depth psychotherapy, or are dedicated to growth, you're in the right place!

I believe relationships are central to healing. Drawing from Primary Attachment Therapy, and Integrative Attachment Therapy, we’ll explore your attachment patterns and how past relationships shape the way you connect, protect yourself, and respond to others. Our therapeutic relationship itself can become a place to experience new ways of relating. Whether individually or as a couple, we’ll work toward greater security, connection, and earned secure attachment.
I’m a graduate of the META Institute’s two-year Hakomi training and have practiced Hakomi and related mindfulness-based experiential therapies since 2019. I’ve maintained a daily meditation practice since my first 10-day retreat in 2015 and integrate mindfulness into therapy when helpful. My approach is attachment- and trauma-informed, recognizing that mindfulness can be powerful but may also feel vulnerable or activating for some clients. We’ll always adapt practices to your needs and comfort.
I began studying Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples with Dr. Sue Johnson in 2022 and have since worked with couples across many relationship structures and identities, including monogamous, polyamorous, queer, trans, non-binary, and asexual couples. In EFT, we identify cycles of disconnection, understand the attachment needs beneath them, and learn to respond with greater openness and effectiveness. Together, we work toward deeper security, intimacy, engagement, and repair.
I use depth-oriented approaches to explore subconscious material and core patterns beneath present-day struggles. Drawing from Hakomi, Primary and Integrative Attachment Therapy, we use mindfulness, therapeutic relationship, and experiential work to connect present experience with early relationships and unmet needs. Together, we offer compassionate attention to the deepest parts of yourself, including the inner child, creating opportunities for healing, integration, and lasting change.
I’m trained in Hakomi, a somatic-based psychotherapy, and integrate somatic approaches into a holistic understanding of mind, body, emotions, and relationships. In therapy, we may explore bodily sensations, posture, movement, spatial dynamics, and—when appropriate and with consent—touch to deepen self-awareness and support emotional regulation. My somatic work is also informed by polyvagal theory and Somatic Experiencing, helping us understand how the nervous system shapes your experience.

I’m trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and primary attachment therapy for relationships. I work with couples and partners in monogamous, polyamorous, and other relationship structures to understand and transform patterns of disconnection. Together, we slow down, identify underlying cycles, communicate more effectively, repair relationship injuries, and build greater emotional availability, security, intimacy, and connection. I also work with family and other important relationships
I work with PTSD and complex PTSD using a gentle, holistic, trauma-informed approach. Drawing from somatic therapy, mindfulness, attachment theory, and nervous-system regulation, we work to understand and transform how trauma affects your body, emotions, relationships, and sense of self. My RN background also gives me particular insight into medical trauma and navigating healthcare systems. Whenever possible, I aim for trauma resolution, not just trauma management.
Low self-esteem can shape how we experience ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us. I use mindfulness-based experiential and somatic approaches to explore underlying patterns and create opportunities for new emotional experiences. Drawing on principles of neuroplasticity and memory reconsolidation, we work to develop greater self-compassion, inner security, and freedom from longstanding patterns—not simply manage symptoms.
I don’t see therapy as simply the treatment of pathology, but as an opportunity for growth and self-discovery. Through mindfulness-based experiential and somatic approaches, I help you explore what matters most, deepen your connection with yourself, and move toward greater authenticity and self-compassion. Therapy can support not only healing, but also contentment, resilience, joy, meaningful relationships, and the freedom to pursue a life that feels genuinely your own.
I help men explore the complexity of masculinity and their experiences within a complex changing cultural landscape. Together, we can examine your relationship with power, sex, assertiveness, anger, vulnerability, identity, and connection. I approach men’s personal growth with curiosity, respect, and compassion, recognizing that there is often more beneath the surface. As both a gender-fluid person and a self-identified man, I hope to be an ally as you explore what it means to be yourself.
