for people with big feelings, old patterns, and questions about how they work
therapy for adults
Maybe you cry too easily. Or the opposite—you don't notice what you're feeling until it comes out sideways as anger or shutdown. Maybe you're carrying stuff from years ago that still runs the show more than you'd like. Or you're starting to wonder if you're autistic, ADHD, or both, and you're tired of feeling like you have to mask—even in therapy.
You're not looking for someone to tell you what's wrong with you. You're looking for real relief, and real change.
therapy for teens and adolescents
strengths-based therapy for your teen or tween
They seem overwhelmed and moody, more distant than they used to be, shutting you out. It's frustrating and painful in equal parts—and maybe you've already tried a therapist or two who your teen refused to go back to.
The teens I work best with are a little hard to categorize. Smart, creative, intense—and exhausted from spending all day in places that don't quite fit them. They're a little "more." More sensitive, more intense—and the world around them doesn't always know what to make of them.
for partners who love each other but keep missing each other
couples therapy
You wish your partner really understood what you're saying—and maybe what you're not saying, too. You crave real, safe intimacy, not just fewer fights. A lot can come up when the people we love miss us.
You both deserve to be seen, understood, and valued by each other. Couples therapy takes collaboration, compassion, and curiosity from both of you—and I'll help you find your way back to each other.
Hi there!
I'm a former software product manager turned therapist who loves working with people who feel things really deeply. You're coming to therapy because something isn't working anymore, and you're not feeling your best.
I bring a sense of coziness that puts you at ease, alongside a direct style that will gently challenge you too. My approach is trauma-informed, relational, and somatic—an integrated way of paying attention. I specialize in developmental and relational trauma: the kind that comes from early attachment wounds and shapes how you relate to yourself and others today.
I'm trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ affirming, and neurodivergent affirming. I see clients in-person in Berkeley and Oakland, and online anywhere in California, for long-term, depth therapy.
