Healing is personal. So is therapy.
Individual psychotherapy, rooted in care and curiosity.
Therapy for Trauma, Anxiety, and Addiction
Untangling the Patterns That Keep You Stuck
Trauma, anxiety, and addiction often don’t show up alone. They intertwine in quiet, complex ways—feeding into each other, masking each other, and making healing feel overwhelming or out of reach.
You might be living with constant worry, a racing mind, or a body that never fully relaxes.
You might use substances, work, food, or relationships to cope—only to feel shame afterward.
You may not even call your experiences “trauma,” but something inside still feels unsettled, unsafe, or too much to carry alone.
Therapy can help you make sense of the patterns beneath the pain. Together, we can explore how your symptoms are not signs of failure, but signs of survival—strategies your nervous system developed to protect you.
In our work, we might:
Explore the roots of your anxiety and how it shows up in your body and thoughts
Identify how addictive behaviors may be helping you manage overwhelming emotions or disconnection
Gently process past trauma—at a pace that feels safe and honoring
Build tools for nervous system regulation, emotional resilience, and self-trust
This is not about forcing change. It’s about creating space to understand yourself, release what no longer serves you, and build a life that feels more free, connected, and whole.
You’re not broken. You’ve been surviving. And therapy can be where you learn to truly begin healing.
Therapy for Creatives & Healers
Holding Space for Those Who Hold So Much
As a creative or healer, you’re deeply attuned to the world around you.
You feel things intensely. You’re driven by meaning, intuition, expression, and care. But holding space for others—or channeling your inner world into your work—can come at a cost.
Maybe you’re exhausted from constantly showing up for others.
Perhaps your creativity feels blocked, your boundaries are blurred, or your nervous system is exhausted.
Maybe you’ve been carrying unspoken grief, self-doubt, or impostor syndrome, quietly, for years.
Therapy can be a place where you get to be the one held. A place where you don’t have to perform, produce, or protect anyone else.
In our work together, we’ll explore how your inner world, your creative life, and your role as a space-holder or sensitive being all intersect. We'll honor your depth, your rhythms, and your longing to live and work from a more grounded, integrated place.
Whether you're a therapist, nurse, artist, teacher, bodyworker, musician, or intuitive—this is space for your healing, not just your helping.
You don’t have to keep pouring from an empty cup.
Therapy can be where you refill it.
Therapy for First Generation Americans
Navigating Two Worlds - Honoring All of You
Being first-generation often means carrying the weight of multiple worlds. You may be translating languages, expectations, emotions—while trying to find your own voice in the middle of it all.
It can feel like you're constantly shifting between cultures, identities, and roles.
As a Romanian-American therapist, I understand the complexity of that experience firsthand. I know what it’s like to live between family and independence, tradition and self-expression, survival and healing.
For the past five years, I’ve had the privilege of working with many bicultural and first-generation clients as they explore who they are beyond the roles they’ve inherited.
In our work together, we can process:
The tension between honoring your roots and forging your own path
Guilt, pressure, or perfectionism tied to family expectations
The emotional toll of code-switching, caretaking, or being “the strong one”
Grief for what your family never had—and what they can’t always understand
The richness of your identity, not just the challenges
Therapy can be a space where you don’t have to choose sides or explain yourself. Where your story makes sense. Where all your layers are welcome.
You deserve support that sees your full Self—not just your symptoms, but your context.
“You are the sky. Everything else - it’s just the weather.
