About

I am a therapist for the doers: the ones running teams, households, and group chats, who looked up one day and realized the doing had quietly replaced the living. I spent several years in administration and returned to clinical work because spreadsheets never once said thank you; people do, and helping them is the best job I know. My clients are usually running on empty, still excellent on paper and privately unraveling. For some, getting out of bed has slowly become the day's steepest hill, and we treat that with equal parts gentleness and respect. Together we build a real footing in the present moment, which is where energy and joy actually get made. I am equally at home working in English and American Sign Language (ASL), and that access matters deeply to me. I lead with kindness and follow with honesty, in that order. If you are one of the doers, consider this your invitation to receive for a change.
