My Therapy Space
“it is through and in the language of the body that we most fully and completely express our human being ”
-Mary Sykes Wylie
My Practice
My practice is infused with warmth, care, and heart. Integrative and relational in nature, the therapeutic work I do incorporates somatics, person-centered therapy, and mindfulness practices. I hold the belief that we all carry our own innate wisdom, and as such, I create space in the therapeutic relationship for my clients to be the experts on themselves and to articulate their needs, wants, and experiences in a safe, nurturing environment. The focus within my work is less on fixing and more on accompanying your human-ness.

Your twenties and thirties can feel like you're supposed to have everything figured out, but maybe you're questioning who you really are beneath all the expectations. You might be achieving things that look good on paper while feeling disconnected from what actually matters to you.
Often we know we want to feel more grounded and authentic, yet something unknown seems to stand in the way. Maybe it's pressure to perform, comparison to others, or simply not knowing how to trust your own voice. I work with you to explore what's blocking you so we can ask the deeper questions: Who am I really? What do I actually want? How do I want to show up in this life?

With a background in the San Francisco tech & startup space, I understand the burnout, perfectionism, and unique pressure that can come with these work environments. I offer support to those in high-pressure positions, and individuals navigating chronic stress.
