It can be incredibly vulnerable to seek support for your relationship - thank you for considering me! At its best, partnership can make those challenges more manageable and at its hardest, our relationships can be the source of much of our stress. I believe the role of couples counseling is not to get to a resolution on a specific issue (although that may occur) but to help partners learn how to have conflict effectively and in a way that supports intimacy building.

I practiced at Bowdoin College for students struggling with identity exploration, anxiety, depression and relationships. I spent 3 years working in residential/day treatment with adolescents (and their families) who have endured complex trauma, anxiety and mood disorders, and developmental disabilities. Much of my experience is with children, adolescents and young adults, though I am open to working with all ages and cater treatment to each client.
