I specialize in helping individuals and couples to shift from an insecure to secure attachment style. A person struggling with insecure attachment experiences anxiety, avoidance, or both, making it difficult to create and maintain close relationships. This is most often due to past experiences that have yet to be processed and resolved, so they block the way to adult relationship success and lead to repeating patterns. Developing a secure attachment style allows you to confidently be yourself, set healthy boundaries, implement self-care, and build healthy platonic and romantic connection for a greater quality of life.

Making changes can be hard and finding a therapist can be overwhelming. I started working in this field over fifteen years ago to help people like you find a space that is welcoming and provides the safety needed to explore whatever it is you are facing.

It can help reveal patterns that are no longer useful and can help build resiliency. Seeking wellbeing is a courageous act and I do not take that lightly. I would be honored to explore how we might work together.
