*** I am currently offering teletherapy sessions via an easy to use, secure video-chat interface. Most insurance plans cover teletherapy the same as in-person! *** I want to gain a good understanding of who you are, where you come from, and where you want to go. It can be intimidating to tell your story and put your trust in a therapist and it is my goal to provide full support and acceptance with every single client. It is essential to develop a good working relationship with a therapist you feel comfortable with.

I believe creating a supportive and safe therapeutic relationship is the introduction to pursuing mental health and well being. Relationships cause brokenness and pain, but they are also the source of healing. My goal is to form a trusting relationship where you feel heard, valued and validated. As we journey together, you will begin to explore how your past is connected to and currently impacts your present. It is through this exploration and a strong therapeutic relationship that you can begin to embrace and work with the life you've been given. I am honored and excited to walk through this adventure with you.

I specialize in relationship dynamics and undesirable sexual arousal patterns/behaviors.
Couples tend to be the relationship dynamic most likely to seek out therapy, but all relationships are important. Relationships I work with include, but are not limited to: marital, intimate partner, co-parent, sibling, friend, and workplace relationships. We tend to find ourselves repeating old patterns of attachment and communication created during formative years. This can lead to feeling stuck, frustrated, and disconnected. While two people are required to create a pattern in a relationship, one person can often effectively change the dynamic through learning new skills, setting healthy boundaries, and improving communication.

If you’re in a relationship and you no longer feel the spark, we will work towards building and re-building the connection that you used to have.
What is this therapy thing all about? It’s simple and hard at the same time and can be the best decision you’ll ever make for yourself. You talk, I listen. And together we open up the possibilities. We will explore what makes you you, and then decide what you want to keep and want you’d like to change. The goal is to help you feel closer to your authentic self while being able to love those around you in a deeper, more meaningful way.

I work with women (16+) and couples facing relationship challenges, trauma, anxiety/depression.
Do you feel stuck in the same patterns? Is coping with day to day issues overwhelming you? Maybe you are dealing with a big life change that has you reeling: infidelity, loss, divorce. If you've gotten to a breaking point, and you aren't sure you can keep going with things as they are, therapy can help. Life is hard and relationships are complicated. Sometimes you need some help to sort it all out. If you want to feel less anxious, more confident and hopeful, you may be ready for therapy. Let's work together to figure out what is keeping you stuck, so you can move forward and have the life you really want.

This means that through the therapeutic relationship, we slow down and give space for the body, mind and heart to process through distressing experiences locked in the nervous system and allow you to receive what you needed then, now.
I believe we are created for relationship where we are not only seen, heard, and known, but also loved, cherished, and healed.

You were not created to carry it all alone. I walk alongside others because I believe Jesus wants to meet you right where you are at, just as you are: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28

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.
