I work with adults and adolescents ages 13 and up. My approach to therapy is grounded in psychoanalytic theory and integrates meditation, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and creative interventions tailored to each person’s needs and temperament. I am an EMDR-trained clinician specializing in trauma.

I grew up in a rural South Georgia town near where my parents were raised. From an early age, I felt like I didn’t quite fit in but lacked the language and support to articulate what that meant or where it might lead me. My teens and twenties were spent traveling, exploring nature, and immersing myself in art, music, poetry, and Eastern philosophy. Looking back, I see these wanderings as a way of seeking answers to questions I couldn’t yet name. That journey of self-discovery and healing ultimately led me to become a therapist, where I strive to help others navigate their own paths.

I view individuals as intricate tapestries of historical, cultural, biological, and ecological threads, woven together into the deeply personal experiences and identities we navigate daily. I aim to provide a space that is open and accepting enough to hold that complexity and vulnerability. Together, we will explore, imagine, and articulate these underlying dynamics. In doing so, we build self awareness, work to break old patterns, resolve inner conflicts, and create new ways of being with yourself and others—ways that bring greater joy, meaning, connection, and peace. Reconciling with the suffering and desire that brings people into therapy is a sacred life task. It would be an honor to work with you on that task. I invite you to reach out with any questions, schedule a complimentary consultation, or book your first session.
