My Story

I was a competitive athlete long before I was a therapist. I know what it feels like to define yourself by performance, to push through pain you can't name, and to assume that strength means doing it alone.

At 27, I went to therapy for the first time. I walked in skeptical. I walked out with a different relationship to myself — and an understanding of how much energy I'd been spending just holding things together.

That experience is why I do this work. I sit across from men, teens, and athletes who are quietly carrying a lot, and I help them put it down — not by softening them, but by helping them see themselves clearly.

I don't just sit and nod. I'm engaged, direct, and warm. We work together to find what's actually getting in your way and build something real in its place.
