About

I will be straight with you: emailing a stranger about your inner life is awkward, and pretending otherwise would be an odd way to begin. So here is my promise: no quizzes, no verdicts, nothing to prepare. I trained in community clinics before private practice, which taught me to respect people's realities, not just their symptoms. The adults I see are often tangled in worry that has long outgrown its original cause. Many of my clients are women renegotiating what womanhood demands of them at home and at work. I do not pretend to know that terrain firsthand; my job is to ask well and believe the answers. People tell me sessions with me feel surprisingly comfortable, like sitting with someone who is actually interested, because I am. If awkward is the price of starting, it is a small one, and it fades by the second visit.
