From the very start, people try to control you.

In recent years, the concept of the authentic self has become a defining theme in both personal development and mental health conversations. As individuals increasingly seek meaning beyond external achievements or societal expectations, there is a growing desire to reconnect with one’s core values, voice, and lived truth. 

The rhetoric of popular culture often promotes individuality and self-expression as ultimate ideals, yet it can paradoxically reinforce performative expectations under the guise of "being real."  While influencers-turned-life-coaches may offer relatable content and personal anecdotes, their lack of formal mental health training can lead to oversimplified advice, misinformation, and the unintentional reinforcement of harmful patterns under the banner of empowerment.

I am not not selling healing... You are not for sale. 

My work is shaped over by two decades of professional experience and half a centery of my own journey.   With me, you will find the benefit of clinical training intersecting with philosophical inquiry, intuition with grounded practice, and fierce honesty and deep compassion. 

I don’t just help people feel better.
My goal is to help you know yourself better... That’s a BIG difference.

As a certified Gestalt therapist,  we will do work that supports the pursuit of authenticity  through a meaningful exploration of the true self in the here-and-now, not as a fixed identity, but as a dynamic, evolving expression of who you are when you are fully present and integrated.
