Divorce is not the end of your story. It is the portal to it. I'm here to walk that territory with you.
"We are here to rewrite the story of partnership, home, and self-worth — through the portal of divorce."
Divorce dismantles not just a marriage — it dismantles a self. The home you lived in. The family you built. The woman you thought you were. The future you had planned.
Most therapy approaches divorce as a crisis to survive. I approach it as a threshold to cross.
What I bring is different: play, creativity, and radical self-expression into the hardest terrain you've ever navigated. I hold space for your grief, your rage, your confusion, and your curiosity — without rush, without judgment, without the pressure to be okay before you're ready.
I'm a warrior for fairness. A guardian of your boundaries. A re-mothering presence as you learn to belong to yourself again.
My mission is simple and enormous: help you answer the questions that feel unanswerable. Who am I outside of partnership? What is home? What do I believe about care and belonging? Who am I on the other side?
Before you can move forward, your story needs to be witnessed — fully, without judgment, without the need to resolve it quickly. Grief, rage, love, relief, shame, confusion. All of it is allowed. We hold the whole thing.
Divorce rewrites the definitions of family, home, and care. Together we orient you — not back to what was, but forward to what home can mean when you get to decide. We rebuild the nest from the inside out.
This is the center of the fear. I midwife you through it — creating safety inside the terror of "am I safe to separate?" until the question becomes not "will I survive?" but "watch me."
The woman who emerges from this threshold isn't who she was before — she's someone she's always been, finally unencumbered. We align to her: her desires, her worth, her vision, her life.
I became a therapist because I believe that the most stigmatized moments of a woman's life are also the most potent. Not in a silver-lining way. In a real, sacred, in-the-body way.
I am unconventional. I am future-focused. I bring creativity, play, and self-expression to places that are usually only allowed to be grief. I hold you with fierceness and tenderness in the same breath.
I am what I call a "public nurturer" — someone who has built an entire career on emotional safety, re-mothering, and guiding people through family transitions. My work is the work of the threshold: holding you in the space between who you were and who you're becoming.
Each pathway is designed to meet you where you are in the territory of your divorce — whether you've just arrived at the threshold or you're nearly on the other side.
Deep, ongoing work through all four territories. We go at your pace, into the terrain that calls you. This is your sacred container — held, consistent, and entirely yours.

Join the circle"I walked in believing my divorce had broken me. I walked out understanding it had been trying to free me for years. This work didn't just help me survive my marriage ending — it gave me the language for who I am when no one else defines me."
"I had never allowed myself to be this honest — about what I wanted, what I feared, who I was pretending to be. She holds space like no one I've ever worked with. I felt safe to fall apart and safe to put myself back together."
"She brought humor, creativity, and fire into what I thought was just grief work. I didn't know it was possible to feel this alive during the hardest year of my life. The other side is real — and I'm standing on it."
Not at all. Women come to this work at every stage: contemplating separation, in the middle of proceedings, recently finalized, or years out but still navigating identity and belonging. The threshold has many entry points.
I integrate creativity, play, and somatic awareness alongside traditional therapeutic approaches. I'm future-focused as much as I am present-focused — I don't just help you process what happened, I help you orient to who you're becoming. I also refuse to pathologize divorce. I treat it as a threshold, not a trauma — though trauma can absolutely be part of the work.
This space is not here to push you toward any decision. It's here to help you hear your own voice more clearly, build your own sense of safety, and understand what you actually want and need. Some women come and ultimately stay in their marriages. The work is about your clarity, your sovereignty — not a predetermined outcome.
It is exactly the reason to come. That fear — "will I survive this?" — is the center of the work. I was built to midwife women through the territory of that question. You don't have to be okay yet. You just have to be willing to walk toward it.
Yes. All sessions are available virtually, which means wherever you are in the world — in the spare room after bedtime, in your car in a parking lot, in a borrowed space — I'll meet you there. The threshold doesn't require a particular location.
"The question isn't just whether you'll be okay. It's: who is the woman who gets to find out?"
Reach out — I'd love to hear from you.
