About Me

Before becoming a therapist, I spent nearly two decades in the digital music and tech industry. While that experience gives me firsthand insight into high-pressure workplaces, my practice extends far beyond the corporate world. I work with creatives, artists, entrepreneurs, caregivers, professionals, and others who have adapted to stress by staying productive, capable, or self-reliant—often at the expense of feeling connected to themselves.

Many of my clients appear to have it all together while privately struggling with anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, relationship challenges, or emotional disconnection. Others find themselves people-pleasing, over-functioning, avoiding conflict, or unsure how to ask for support. These patterns often began as intelligent adaptations that no longer serve them.

I especially enjoy working with men who want something different from the messages they've received about strength, emotion, and self-reliance.

I completed graduate training in Somatic Psychology and practice from a trauma-informed, body-based perspective that integrates insight with nervous system awareness. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in curiosity rather than judgment. Together, we'll help you move beyond surviving and toward feeling more present, connected, and fully yourself.

Who I Help

  • Individuals and couples of all identities and orientations

  • Depression, anxiety, and mood concerns

  • Life transitions (career, relocation, grief, adulthood milestones)

  • Family of origin issues/estrangement

  • Relationship issues (communication, attachment patterns, conflict repair)

  • Clients across the lifespan (teens through older adults)

My Approach

My work is trauma-informed, relational, and body-based. Depending on your needs, therapy may include:

  • Somatic awareness and nervous system regulation

  • Attachment-informed and relational work

  • Identifying protective patterns (perfectionism, people-pleasing, over-functioning)

  • Supporting parts of self with compassion (inner child / parts work)

  • Emotional processing, boundaries, and self-trust

  • Mindfulness and practical tools for stress resilience
