I work with people of all genders and sexualities who know what it’s like to hide parts of themselves in order to meet the expectations of others. This can show up in many forms: perfectionism, anxiety, people-pleasing, or difficulty maintaining boundaries. Just as often, these patterns are intertwined with real strengths, including deep empathy and attunement to others.

In therapy, I help clients slow down to better understand where these dynamics come from, and how they once made sense. From there, we work to create more room for the parts of self that are longing for care, attention, and a share of the love they so readily offer others.
