Are you navigating through personal or relationship issues that are holding you back from living the life you want? Perhaps you are seeking to learn tools and strategies to feel less anxious or depressed. Maybe you seek a space to tackle the barriers that are keeping you stuck and preventing you from achieving your goals. You may have tried on your own to fix what is troubling you but it has been difficult to find relief. I know starting therapy can seem intimidating, but sometimes the healing process simply starts by showing up and investing in yourself.

I have 10+ years of experience working with families in an individual, couple, and family setting. Whether you are in the process of dating, are in a relationship, or in the process of navigating a breakup or divorce, or somewhere in-between. I work with couples that are having difficulties with emotional connection, falling out of love, struggling with infidelity, and learning to move forward. Love is an emotion, and our past experiences can dictate who we choose in partner selection. Additionally, I also help young adults and older adults, understand their values and how it affects partner selection and finding a balance.

I enjoy working with adult professionals who are feeling burnt out, tired of striving for perfection, and stuck reaching for coping skills that no longer serve them. As a therapist, I believe that everything is relational. The most important relationship we have is the one we nourish with ourselves. I empower my clients to refine, deepen, and strengthen their communication, foster emotional intimacy with themselves and others, and address cyclical relational patterns that feel difficult to end.

As a high achiever, you rarely make time to prioritize yourself. Though you have accomplished many things, there are still feelings of worthlessness, imperfection, or "not enough" nagging at you. You want to be happy, but joy and contentment feels uncomfortable and you rarely take time to celebrate your wins. You feel disconnected from your friends and family, and wonder how everyone else is so happy when you feel like an imposter at work, in your relationship, or as a parent.

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.
