My focus is on helping people to break free from painful, unwanted patterns in their lives, and to find greater confidence, connection, and joy. Couples work is a primary focus of my practice, and I work with couples at all stages of relationship. I help partners interrupt destructive fights, build effective communication skills, and create greater intimacy.
I also work with individuals around relational themes such as self-assertion, healthy entitlement, and sense of belonging. I am very aware of the “false selves” we sometimes feel we have to present to the world, and how isolating it can be to live this way. I want to help you live a life that feels more like yours, while also feeling connected to others.
My website has more details about me and my work. (Click the link under my photo.) I'm happy to answer any questions you have about therapy or my practice, so please call or email if you'd like to learn more. I'm looking forward to hearing from you!
