About

A different kind of depth work

Welcome to Emerald Grove Psychotherapy. My work is relational, existential, and depth-oriented. Rather than approaching you as a collection of symptoms, I am interested in understanding the whole person: what shaped you, what helped you survive, and what keeps repeating. I believe therapy works best when it becomes a place where you can stop performing and become increasingly honest about who you are. The therapeutic relationship itself gives us an opportunity to notice patterns as they emerge, experiment with something different, and carry that freedom into your life outside the room. My own path has included military service, a Harvard education, teaching yoga, thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail, and work in psychedelic preparation and integration. Those experiences inform a practice grounded in curiosity, complexity, meaning, embodiment, and a deep respect for the many ways people find their way back to themselves. I offer psychotherapy to residents of North Carolina. Click "Request Appointment" if my style resonates with you.
