Who I Work With

I work with adults who are navigating experiences that have left them feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck, or unsure of themselves. My clients often include people experiencing:

Loneliness, isolation, and difficulty finding a sense of belonging
-
Relationship struggles, attachment wounds, and difficulty trusting others
-
Fear of abandonment, rejection, or intimacy
-
Difficulty with boundaries, communication, and expressing needs
-
Low self-worth, shame, perfectionism, and people-pleasing

Feeling disconnected from your body, emotions, needs, or sense of self
These experiences impact the way we see ourselves, how we relate to others, and move through the world. They can influence how safe we feel, how we understand our needs, how we connect with our bodies and emotions, and what we believe is possible for our lives. In therapy, we can explore the ways your experiences have shaped you with curiosity and compassion. Together, we can work toward understanding your patterns, reconnecting with yourself, developing a greater sense of safety and self-trust, and creating more meaningful relationships and a life that feels more authentically yours.
