About

For folks returning to therapy after a break, or who have had therapy before and want a different fit this time, we'll start by figuring out what worked and what didn't last time. That history is useful, not baggage. Some people come in feeling stuck, feeling lost, or feeling disconnected from a life that, on paper, looks fine. We work to surface what's actually missing and to make the next step feel less impossible. A lot of the people I work with arrive feeling sad or feeling unhappy in a way that's hard to name. Sometimes the days feel empty or numb, and even getting to a session feels like effort. We start small and build from there, with no expectation that you arrive ready. If this is your first time in therapy, or you've been considering therapy for a while and finally feel ready, I want you to know there's no right way to do this. We'll go at your pace, and I'll explain anything that feels opaque about how the process works.
