Introduction

I specialize in helping high-achieving professionals—both individuals and couples—cultivate self-awareness, clarity, and inner peace. While external success looks impressive and might suggest an easier life, it can often mask internal struggles like relationship challenges, anxiety, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, or depression. These feelings can overshadow an otherwise fulfilling life. I provide a safe, compassionate space to explore your thoughts, emotions, and energy, unravel complex dynamics, and nurture self-understanding. Together, we examine what is held in your body, mind, and heart to identify and release what no longer serves you. Our work focuses on embracing your unique strengths and qualities, paving the way for greater clarity, peace, and presence. Through this process, relationships—with yourself and others—can transform into more compassionate and fulfilling connections. In my experience, therapy doesn’t change who you are; it allows you to become more fully yourself. The pace and focus of therapy depend on your goals. I work with professionals in business, tech, medicine, law, and other fields, providing both individual and couples therapy. Let’s connect for a consultation to see if we’re the right fit for your journey.
