Introduction

If you're looking to feel more grounded, stable, and at peace in your personal and professional life, I can help. I work with individuals struggling with overwhelming worry, feelings of inadequacy, fear that things can’t change, or the sense that life is happening to them rather than with them. I also support clients navigating complex family or romantic relationships, the integration of sexual orientation and/or gender identity with other areas of life, and processing grief from loss, death, or relationship endings.
