I believe that holding space for healing is connected to my divine purpose. Growing up, I spent many moments with my mom watching the moon as it illuminated the lake—a place filled with memories that shaped who I am. The moon became my teacher, offering me the most important lesson I’ve come to know: it is in the darkness where we often find the most profound beauty and light. I’ve carried this lesson with me throughout my life, continually learning how even in my most challenging and painful times, there is always the potential for healing and growth.

As human beings, we all carry patterns—some that support our wellbeing and others that no longer serve us. When unexamined, these patterns can lead to cycles of anxiety, depression, addiction, and other struggles. Often, they are the psyche’s way of protecting us from unhealed wounds, many of which have been buried, avoided, or numbed over time. From my own journey, and from walking alongside countless others, I know that facing these wounds is the gateway to transformation and wholeness.

The word psyche comes from ancient Greek, meaning both "soul" and "butterfly," with the butterfly symbolizing the transformation of the soul. From this root, we get the word psychology, deeply connected to the process of change—the image of a butterfly emerging from its cocoon. Like the butterfly, healing is a process of metamorphosis: shedding old layers, moving through darkness, and stepping into the fullness of our true selves. In my work as a therapist, I guide you through this transformation, helping you navigate the shadows, reclaim your power, and reconnect with the inner light that has always been within you.

One of the most powerful tools is the creation of secure attachment within the therapeutic relationship. Often, the first person to offer unconditional care and kindness is a therapist. From my own experience, I have witnessed the profound healing that occurs when we allow ourselves to be truly seen by another. My role is to hold that space for you—gently challenging when necessary, but always with love and consistency. In this compassionate, corrective space, you can experience what healthy, nurturing love feels like—and eventually learn to offer it to yourself.

I would be honored to walk alongside you on this journey, to support you in shedding old layers, and to help you step into a version of yourself that is whole, healed, and free.
