I have several specialties: For relationships, I am a Certified Imago Relationship Therapist developed by Harville Hendrix.
Sometimes we need a little help to reclaim or find our inner strength. I believe we all possess the wisdom to succeed somewhere within our psyche. My goal in therapy is to help clients overcome the obstacles that hinder them on their path. I tend to look for the strengths in individuals and my objective is to embrace each client without judgment in order to create a safe environment. I also believe it is important for one to feel heard and validated for their experience in order to move beyond their blocks.

Attachment styles (your defenses, how you process and respond) exploration of attachment bonds and injuries and how they are possibly impacting your current relationship.
Falling in love can cause our hearts to orchestrate a symphonic experience, many beautiful parts coming together to create a dance of a lifetime. After a few missteps, wrong turns, and bad timing, even the best relationships can spin out of control. No matter if you are having problems related to intimacy, communication, trauma from betrayal, infidelity, differences in sexual fulfillment, finances, parenting or any other impasse you may experience, attunement is available (you can gain the healing, knowledge the fulfillment you desire and deserve).

I deeply value the importance of our therapeutic relationship and aim to intentionally co-create a space where you feel safe, accepted and understood.
Welcome! I enjoy helping clients explore their identities and experiences in more depth in order to integrate more adaptive ways to heal from past wounds and live a more intentional and fulfilling life. In our work together, my goal is to help you cultivate greater awareness, identify and discard unhelpful patterns and create new avenues of change. Therapy with me is a dynamic, collaborative and slowed down process that acts as a container to safely explore and metabolize pain in a new way. I operate from a trauma-informed and culturally sensitive lens, with an emphasis in upholding anti-racist and LGBTQIA+ affirming practices.
