Your mind will answer most questions if you learn to relax and wait for the answer – (William S. Burroughs). You are in command and I am only a passenger in your experience. With a pace that you will establish we will participate in talk therapy together and allow ourselves the opportunity to be self-aware. This should be a space that you understand is free of criticism and open enough to explore your life with a slight amount of help from me. Everything about you is allowed in our sessions and I mean that genuinely.

In my work with couples, I recognize that communication can often be a significant barrier to connection. Many couples I work with experience their own mental health needs, which can complicate interactions and lead to misunderstandings. I create a safe and supportive environment where partners can openly express their thoughts and feelings. Together, we explore the underlying issues that may be hindering communication/connection and work on strategies to enhance understanding and empathy. I help couples develop practical skills for healthier communication.

These roadblocks can be difficult to understand and even harder to work through them ourselves. My passion is to provide individuals with a compassionate emotional space where feelings, thoughts and ideas can be safely expressed, giving way to a deeper understanding and clarity of the self.
