I am a trauma- informed Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist with over a decade of experience working with relational and family dynamics.
Hello! Thank you for your interest in my practice. People who typically seek out somatic therapy are those who are interested in the body/ mind connection. Becoming more aware of your present moment experience can help alleviate negative thought patterns, trauma responses, and relieve anxiety and depression. Somatic therapy can help you cultivate deeper self-awareness and help you stop negative cycles and release trauma that is stuck in the body. If you experience anxiety or depression somatic therapy, EMDR, and breathwork can help release old patterns that are no longer serving you.

Do you feel “off” in your life or relationship? Are you and/or your partner neurodivergent? Past trauma can hinder your ability to connect deeply with others, leaving you feeling “stuck” in patterns that clash with your goals and values. Together, we can work towards emotional lightness and a transition from merely surviving to thriving. In relational work, I help partners develop skills for lasting intimacy and stability. We’ll pause dead-end arguments to explore what’s truly bothering you, creating a shared vision for happiness. Many couples find that a neutral presence unlocks new levels of understanding.

I do this by helping to repair relational attachment injuries, destructive communication patterns, and negative thought patterns through a nurturing environment, experiential strategies, and psychoeducation.
My ideal clients to work with are people of any age or gender who have relational conflict. I want to respect and honor their authentic identity, looking at their relationships, what is working vs not working, while giving space to explore and heal through past and present trauma. This would include children and parents, families, and couples experiencing such conflict. Supporting clients from a place of curiosity, nonjudgement, and compassion as well as developing trust and hope is my strength as a therapist.

Lately, emotional pain seems to be dictating your life and controlling almost everything you do. It's frustrating, overwhelming, and seemingly endless. It sucks. You try to keep busy to avoid it, but as soon as there is a brief pause in activity: while you wait at a red light, or lay in bed wide awake in the middle of the night, or settle in your chair for a moment of rest, that excruciating feeling creeps back in. it's so intense and deafening. You have nowhere to hide from it and no power to control it. You have tried the old ways to manage it, but they have stopped working like before.

My specialty is Autonomic Healing Activation (AHA) and Relationship Therapy. AHA is a brain exercise that activates your brain to normalize stress for the mind, body, and spirit. If you don't believe in a spirit, you can focus on mind and body activation. Neurobiologically, the brain produces a way for you to heal, persevere, and grow by managing physical and/or emotional pain. Yes, this approach also works for physical illness and chronic pain. After I teach you, you can practice AHA on your own every day if you wish.

Relational Therapists

How does relational therapy work?

Relational therapy was developed by psychologist Jean Miller, whose ideas stressed that having strong connections with others encourages better health and well-being when compared with a lonely existence. Conversely, poor interpersonal relationships do not foster growth and learning. Relational therapy also encourages trust in others and patience with others, along with better communication and less conflict.

Is relational therapy evidence-based?

Relational therapy is not well-studied, and it may not be as effective in treating certain mental health conditions when compared with evidence-based treatments like cognitive behavioral or acceptance and commitment therapy. However, relational therapy uses techniques found in cognitive behavioral therapy as well as psychodynamic therapy, which are both well-studied with empirical research.

How long are people typically in relational therapy?

Clients may see improvement after a few weeks or months of therapy. Like cognitive behavioral therapy, relational therapy can reduce symptoms within 10 to 20 weeks, at 45 to 50 minutes once a week. But like any type of therapy, improvement depends on the person and the severity of the problem.

Does relational therapy work?

While no therapy type will work for everyone, some evidence suggests that this therapy can be effective. Relational therapy can help a person manage problematic relationships as well as the mental health conditions that accompany difficult relationships like depression or anxiety. This therapy type may offer benefits that are hard to measure but can be just as valuable—including feelings of higher self-worth or healthier connections with others.
