Artists and Creative Professionals

I support artists and creative professionals in working through the unique challenges of a creative life, including burnout, self-doubt, and the pressures of balancing personal fulfillment with professional demands. My integrative approach, rooted in mindfulness and psychodynamic theory, creates space to expand emotional resilience, deepen self-awareness, and move past creative blocks toward more authentic and sustainable expression.

College Students and Young Adults

I work with college students and young adults during one of life’s most transformative stages. Academic pressures, identity exploration, shifting relationships, and the challenges of independence can feel overwhelming. I bring in mindfulness and reflective exploration to help manage stress, build clarity, and support the development of a stronger sense of self during this pivotal time.

Parents and Parenthood

I help parents navigate the evolving demands of parenthood, from the early transitions to the ongoing shifts in roles and family dynamics. Parenthood often involves complex emotions, identity changes, and new challenges in relationships. Drawing on mindfulness and psychodynamic insights, I support parents in processing these experiences, regulating emotions, and strengthening communication within the family, with the goal of fostering a nurturing environment that supports the well-being of both parent and child.

Life Transitions

I support individuals and couples in navigating the uncertainty and possibility that come with life transitions, including personal challenges, relationship or career changes, and major life shifts. These periods can feel disorienting while also opening space for growth and renewal. My approach emphasizes mindfulness and self-compassion as a foundation for reconnecting with values and goals, while also addressing the shifting nature of relationships with care and honesty. I strive to balance motivation with gentleness, encouraging meaningful action and direction while fostering kindness and understanding throughout the process.

Complex Trauma

I work with individuals who have experienced complex trauma, including the lasting effects of difficult family dynamics, relational wounds, or ongoing stress. Trauma often disrupts a sense of safety, identity, and connection, making it harder to trust oneself and others. My approach integrates mindfulness and psychodynamic exploration to gently uncover and process these experiences while building resilience and self-compassion. I focus on creating a steady, supportive space for healing, balancing gentleness with direction so that new pathways of meaning, strength, and connection can emerge.

Highly Sensitive People

I specialize in working with highly sensitive people who experience the world with heightened emotional depth and awareness. While this sensitivity can bring creativity, empathy, and intuition, it can also lead to feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, or self-doubt. I support clients in understanding and embracing their sensitivity as a strength while developing tools to manage overstimulation and emotional intensity. Through mindfulness and psychodynamic exploration, I help foster resilience, self-acceptance, and a sense of balance in navigating life’s demands.
