The therapeutic relationship is an essential part of success in therapy.
Seeking and getting support isn't always easy, but we aren't meant to endure life's challenges alone. Reaching out for support is itself a brave act of self love, and in doing so you will prove to yourself the depth of your abilities and the unlimited potential for growth with which you possess. I believe people are capable of so much, and my goal is to work collaboratively with you to help you achieve what you want to get out of your life and your relationships with others.

If you struggle with low self worth, setting boundaries, losing yourself in your relationships, feeling over stimulated and overwhelmed by life, lack of self and intuitive and body connection, we might be a particularly aligned fit to work together. If you are struggling in your relationship with food and/or body image I can offer you support and hope for healing. I am an attachment-oriented therapist when it comes to supporting the parent/child relationship. I believe that when working with children and youth it is vitally important to work congruently with parents and caregivers as well.

Finding a therapist or life/relationship coach can be a daunting task.
I offer in-person and online therapy or coaching for adults and couples. I specialize in working with "neuro-diverse" clients and their partners. I can assess and diagnose for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADD and ADHD. I will educate you about your brain (and/or your partner's brain) and how brain differences show up in relationships (romantic, work, family, friends). I will help you work through any feelings of grief, self-judgement and shame. It is important to find a therapist who understands how brains on the spectrum function and influence behavior. I invite you to call for a free consultation.

I am passionate about helping adolescents, teens, and adults strengthen their relationship with themselves and the ones they hold dear.
Many times in life we find ourselves struggling with change. We feel burdened by changes that are out of our control, or discouraged by unsuccessful attempts at creating change. Ideas of who we should be and all of the ways we fall short can so easily conceal our path to contentment and self-love.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
