About

There's a moment I see all the time in this work: someone finally says the thought they've guarded for years, then glances up to check whether I've flinched. I never have. I work with adults whose anxiety has quietly taken over the calendar. Obsessions are the other half of my practice, and they thrive on secrecy, so we bring them into the open and study how they operate. From there we make a clear plan together, one with steps small enough to actually do on a random Tuesday. Everything stays values-based: rather than chasing a perfectly quiet mind, we aim at a full life and let the mind grumble along the way. I came here after years in a completely different line of work, so I know what it feels like to begin something new and doubt yourself daily. People tell me our conversations feel less like appointments and more like working sessions with someone firmly in their corner. Bring the thing you've been guarding. I can promise I won't flinch.
