Underneath the words
Many people arrive here after already trying to understand themselves.
They’ve done therapy, reflection, or inner work.
They can often name their patterns and where they come from.
Some have had meaningful or even profound experiences of change.
And yet, in certain moments — especially in relationship — something still moves faster than awareness.
They react before choosing, go quiet when they mean to speak, pull away when closeness matters, or feel more than they can hold.
It can be disorienting when insight grows, and daily life doesn’t reorganize in the same way.
Most people who reach out to me aren’t beginning their healing.
They’re looking for a place where what they already know can be lived.
How this work is different
This work moves at the pace of your experience, not just your words.
We pay attention to what happens as you speak, not just the story being told.
Nothing that appears is treated as a mistake. Even disconnection has meaning and once served a purpose.
Sometimes we stay with a feeling.
Sometimes with a sensation.
Sometimes with a movement that wants to complete.
And sometimes with what is present but hard to describe.
Rather than working from explanation, we work from what is occurring in real time.
What begins to change
People often arrive aware of patterns they recognize but still find themselves repeating.
There are moments where they notice themselves while it’s happening — before the reaction takes over.
Conversations that once felt out of reach begin to happen.
Closeness no longer requires losing themselves, and distance no longer feels like relief.
Emotions move through instead of building or shutting things down.
Grief becomes something that can be carried rather than avoided.
A clearer sense of “no” and “yes” forms without needing to harden or disappear.
Life may not immediately change, but it is lived differently — and relationships begin responding to that difference.
Who this is for
This work tends to resonate with people who:
feel disconnected from themselves or others, even when life appears fine on the outside
notice repeating relationship patterns they can’t seem to shift
sense the weight of earlier experiences or family history still shaping the present
are moving through grief, loss, or a life transition
want emotional depth without forcing it
have tried other approaches but something essential remained untouched
feel drawn without fully knowing why
Some are beginning this kind of work.
Others have done a great deal already.
How we work together
We begin with what is actually happening for you in the moment you arrive.
I won’t try to lead you somewhere you’re not ready to go.
Rather than moving quickly to explanation, we pay attention together — to words, pauses, reactions, and what is felt but not yet fully formed.
Often what matters shows up before there are words for it.
The work is trauma-informed and attentive to body, emotion, and how you find yourself relating — to others, to yourself, and to something larger.
At times we slow things down or stay with an experience long enough for something new to become clear.
You do not need to prepare or know where to start.
We begin wherever you are.
Some people come for a period of support around a life event or difficulty.
Others continue as deeper layers unfold over time.
All sessions are held online.
