The same pattern keeps playing out. You react in ways you don’t want to. You shut down, blow up, or disappear into yourself—and you can’t seem to stop it, even when you see it coming. And then you beat yourself up for it.
Here’s what I want you to know: this isn’t a character flaw. It’s not weakness. Your nervous system learned these responses for good reasons, and with the right approach (and enough safety present), you can learn new ones. But insight alone won’t get you there. You need an approach that works beneath the surface.

Do you find yourself reacting in ways you don't want to—shutting down when things get close, overworking to avoid feeling, or repeating patterns you swore you'd never repeat? I offer neuroscience-informed individual therapy for adults who are ready to understand why they're stuck and rewire the patterns keeping them there. We'll work with what's happening beneath your awareness—so you can actually change it.
The same pattern keeps playing out in your relationship. The same conflict, the same shutdown, the same disconnection—even when you both want things to be different.
Using experiential, neuroscience-informed couples therapy, we'll work with what's happening beneath the surface to help you break old patterns, communicate more effectively, and rebuild emotional safety and connection.
I offer therapy services and consultation groups for therapists. As the founder of The Connected Therapist, I help therapists move beyond burnout and isolation into authentic connection and developing a sustainable practice they love. Whether you're just beginning your career or refining your established practice, I would love to support you in thriving personally and professionally.
In addition to my therapy practice, it is my passion and mission to make therapeutic concepts and neuroscience more accessible and mainstream.
My goal with the podcast is to help people like you feel less alone and more resourced as you navigate the inevitable ups and downs of life.
In the podcast, I share brain science, intentional practices, and real-life stories to help you better understand yourself and improve your connection with others. In the same way that you’d turn to a personal trainer for your physical health, I hope to teach you important emotional and relational skills to help guide you through life’s challenges.
Of course, this podcast is not therapy, but it is a great adjunct to therapy. It can be found on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.
