A steady presence for the work of becoming yourself.

Common areas of concern

A closer look at what we might work on together.

If you see yourself in any of these, you’re in good company — and most people arrive carrying more than one. Tap any topic to read more.

• Attachment

  The patterns we form for getting close — and for protecting ourselves from getting hurt — usually start long before we're old enough to choose them. We'll look at how your early relationships are showing up in your current ones, where you feel most reactive or shut down, and how to slowly build the security you may not have had a chance to develop yet.

• Anxiety

  Anxiety is often a signal that something is asking to be heard. Together we'll work on in-the-moment skills to settle your body and quiet the spiral, while also getting curious about what your anxiety is trying to tell you. The goal is less to eliminate it than to change your relationship with it.

• Depression

  Depression can flatten everything that used to feel like color. I'll meet you in that flatness without trying to talk you out of it, while we slowly work back toward what matters to you — the relationships, the small daily rituals, the sense of meaning that depression tends to take first.

• Relationship issues

  Whether you're dating, partnered, or somewhere in between, the conversations you keep having (or carefully avoiding) usually have roots somewhere deeper. We'll work to identify the cycles you and the people you love get stuck in, the unmet needs underneath them, and what it would take to do something genuinely different.

• Codependency

  Many people who grew up taking care of others' feelings end up unsure where they stop and someone else begins. We'll work on noticing the pull to over-give, fix, or shape-shift, building tolerance for the discomfort of choosing yourself, and learning what real care looks like — both given and received.

• Family conflict

  Sometimes the work happens in family sessions; sometimes it's about helping you find your footing inside a family that won't change. Either way, we'll get clear on the dynamics at play, the role you've been quietly carrying, and what's actually yours to hold versus what isn't.

• Grief & loss

  Grief doesn't move on a schedule, and it doesn't only follow death — there are losses of relationships, of roles, of futures we had imagined. I'll hold space for the parts of grief that don't have a tidy shape, and help you find ways to carry what you've lost rather than leave it behind.

• Divorce & separation

  Whether you're considering it, in the middle of it, or rebuilding on the other side, separation is rarely just one decision — it's hundreds of smaller ones, often made while exhausted and grieving. I'll help you think clearly, care for your children if they're in the picture, and reconnect with who you are outside the partnership.

• Life transitions

  Becoming a parent, leaving a career, moving cities, finishing school, losing a parent of your own — the in-between of a transition can feel like standing on no ground at all. We'll work on tolerating the not-knowing while you find your way to whatever is next.

• Parenting

  Parenting has a way of surfacing every unhealed part of your own childhood, in real time. We'll work on responding rather than reacting, repairing when you don't get it right, and choosing the kind of parent you want to be — distinct from the one you had.

• Self-esteem

  For many people, the harsh inner voice arrived early and felt true. We'll work on hearing it as a voice rather than a fact, understanding where it came from, and building a steadier, kinder relationship with yourself underneath the noise.

• Stress management

  Chronic stress is rarely just about having too much on your plate — it's also about how you've learned to respond to pressure, ask for help, and rest. We'll work on the practical side and the deeper patterns that keep you running on empty.
