Being human is challenging. Am I enough? Too much? Feelings of anxiety and inadequacy can interfere with one’s ability to connect with the self and others. Personal growth requires integration of the mind, body, and soul. Understanding past wounds, exploring difficult emotions and identifying behavioral patterns are steps to creating more fulfilling relationships and providing relief from pain and hurt in one’s life. With empathy, acceptance, and openness, I aim to be a guide along your path toward self-discovery, authenticity, and belonging. *I am an LGBTQIA+ Kink/Poly Ally, I believe in social justice and racial equity.
Whether you are seeking a deeper understanding of yourself or a specific mental health concern, I specialize in helping couples and individuals (15+). I use an eclectic approach to explore challenges and strengths with compassion, free from shame and judgment. I work with couples to increase communication, sexual intimacy, and to deepen emotional expression.
“To be nobody-but-yourself—in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else—means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight.” ~ E.E. Cummings~ Difficult? Sure. Worth it? Of course you are! If my words resonate, please reach out. It would be an honor to begin this journey together. Visit www.itsamoodtherapy.com

As an emotion focused couples therapist, I encourage partners to slow down, identify dysfunctional communication patterns and explore the attachment longings (primary emotions) of each partner. The goal is to help couples rebuild trust and vulnerability by learning to listen to their partners emotional experience, while navigating the responses (defensiveness, etc..) that prevents connection.
