Are you struggling with your relationships? Are you finding it difficult to function in every day activities? Do you feel like you're driven more by emotions than values or goals? As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I compassionately help individuals build greater insight and provide them with tools to better navigate thoughts, emotions and urges that keep them stuck. These maladaptive reactions can interfere with who we want to be and the life we want to live. I can guide you in accepting and tolerating realities that are difficult to accept while also learning how to communicate, cope, and problem solve more effectively.

Tired of not being in control of your emotions? Tired of not feeling good enough or masking how you feel? Do you have a history of difficult interpersonal relationships, fear of abandonment, chronic feelings of emptiness, or impulsive behavior? If you answered yes to any of these, there is no need to feel ashamed. You have most likely experienced attachment injuries, trauma, invalidation, consistent messages that you are not good enough, not worthy of love or you may have come to blame yourself for most of the bad things that have happened to you or your loved ones. These beliefs are distorted and I am here to help you dissect them.

I specialize in working with couples, as well as clients diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), who have Anxious Attachment styles, difficulties with regulating emotions, and/or have a history of trauma. No matter who you are or what you hope to accomplish during your time with me, I seek to provide a validating, empathetic, non-judgmental, and supportive presence- as you do the hard work! I am a passionate person who cares deeply about the work I do and the people I do it for- YOU! I welcome you to my practice- in your time- when you’re ready to create a life worth living.
