Many of us weren't handed a complete toolbox for navigating life's challenges or didn't have models for maintaining satisfying relationships. When it comes to emotional disorders and relational issues people often delay getting the help they deserve. This can perpetuate or prolong painful experiences such as depression, anxiety, and loneliness and relationships can become gridlocked with perpetual issues. Therapy can help us develop the skills to live an anti-depressant life, cope with (even reduce) anxiety, process regrettable events, cultivate meaningful relationships, resolve triggers that impede our goals, and much more.

Here are the specs (though I believe an intro session will give us a real sense of fit): I am a client centered therapist who utilizes a sex positive approach pulling from many tools from evidence based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (based in Attachment theory), Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Mindfulness.
One of the core reasons people come to counseling is that they feel a lack of connection. Sometimes that connection is to others in their life; loved ones, partners, friends, or co-workers. Just as often that lack of connection is to themselves; fear, trauma, sexuality or shame. Fostering those connections with transparency, brevity and compassion is something I love to do. Helping people find understanding and to build coping skills that aren’t just instant gratification which drown out the real issues we’ve got (can feel good though). Skills and insight that’s more meaningful and effective than avoidance, or memes on Instagram.

Embarking on the journey of couples therapy can often evoke feelings of uncertainty and vulnerability. Discussing the intricacies of your relationship isn't always straightforward, even for the most experienced couples. My goal is to establish a safe, non-judgmental, and collaborative environment where both partners feel empowered to explore their current challenges and work together towards meaningful change. I believe in tailoring our therapeutic approach to fit your unique needs as a couple. Every relationship is distinctive, and I am dedicated to adapting our methods to support you in navigating your present struggles.

Hi there! I provide therapy for couples and adult individuals. I specialize in relationship, attachment and parenting issues and perinatal mental health. My clients are curious about unhelpful patterns that seem to keep showing up in their life and relationships. Many times they are putting others before themselves, have trouble trusting, feel guilty about setting boundaries or have trouble communicating their needs AND getting them met. Together, we work to understand the “why’s” and then we continue our work to implement new skills and strategies to either break out of those cycles or find ways to work them in your favor.

My entire practice is dedicated to solving "Relationship problems." The treatment starts with your goals. For some, it is getting the communication skills and best practices for marital happiness. For others, it is helping couples save their marriage after broken trust. I have a unique background.
