You may be used to being the strong one. The person others rely on, the one who keeps going and holds everything together. From the outside, you may seem capable and put together. Inside, you might feel exhausted, anxious, disconnected from yourself, or like nothing you do is ever quite enough.

I work with adults from a wide range of backgrounds, and I especially enjoy supporting Black women and BIPOC clients. You may be navigating trauma, perfectionism, anxiety, ADHD, identity, family or cultural expectations, or a major life transition. Maybe you feel guilty when you rest, say yes when you want to say no, struggle to keep up with everything on your plate, or keep pushing yourself long after you’re depleted.

Therapy doesn’t need to be another place where you have to get things right. My approach is trauma-informed, relational, direct, and collaborative. You can change your mind, laugh, be frustrated, or say the thing you’re not sure you’re supposed to say. I’ll be consistent while giving you room to show up differently from week to week.

Eating Disorders & Body Image  
Maybe food and your body take up more mental space than you want them to. You might find yourself caught in cycles of restriction, overeating, guilt, comparison, or criticizing your body. These patterns can be shaped by family, culture, identity, trauma, relationships, and years of messages about how your body should look.

I have specialized experience with eating disorders and body image concerns. We’ll look at what’s underneath these patterns without adding more judgment or another set of rules to follow, so food and your body can take up less space in your life.

Couples Therapy

You can care deeply about each other and still get caught in the same arguments, feel misunderstood, or wonder how you became so disconnected. Maybe one of you pushes to talk while the other shuts down, or small disagreements quickly turn into bigger ones.

Together, we’ll slow those moments down and look at what’s happening underneath them. I’m not here to decide who’s right or wrong. We’ll work on saying what you actually need, hearing each other differently, and changing the patterns that keep pulling you into the same conflict.

Experience

I’ve worked with clients in private practice, hospitals, higher levels of care, and intensive outpatient settings. My clinical experience includes specialized work with eating disorders, body image concerns, trauma, anxiety, perfectionism, and identity development.  Working with people across these settings has reinforced something I deeply believe: good therapy isn’t about fitting you into a particular approach. It starts with understanding you, your experiences, and what you need. Ultimately, I hope our work helps you feel more connected to yourself, more confident in your choices, and more able to build a life that feels like your own.
