I work from the belief that our inner lives—our feelings, thoughts, and reactions—always have meaning. They're not random or broken; they serve a purpose and shape how we show up in the world, often without us even realizing it.

In therapy, we look at those internal experiences not just to understand them, but to reconnect you with a stronger, more unified sense of self—where you feel more in control, more "you."

For example, let’s say you often shut down or feel numb in conversations with your partner. On the surface, it might seem like you’re just avoiding conflict. But when we slow down and look underneath, we might discover that those shutdowns are actually protecting you from old, painful feelings—maybe rejection, shame, or fear that your needs won’t be met. Once we uncover and work through those emotions, something powerful happens: you're no longer stuck in the same loop. You can respond differently, more freely, and with more choice.

That’s really what this work is about—liberating the part of you that’s been buried under old patterns or emotional blocks. Simply put: your inner life is meaningful, and it has power. Therapy helps you reclaim that.
