We are all wired for connection. I am passionate about helping individuals and couples cultivate the intimacy for which they long. I believe that no matter how destructive behaviors may seem in couples and families, they typically represent people’s sincere efforts to achieve safety and satisfaction in their relationships. As a strengths-based therapist, I know that all individuals have capabilities and internal resources that can be utilized to facilitate growth and fulfilling connection. My work utilizes a psychobiological, trauma-informed attachment lens to cultivate relational and individual health.

I believe that every person has an emotional, mental, physical and spiritual life that needs to be supported and nurtured. In a setting that is caring, supportive and ethical, I work to empower individuals, couples and families to manage their own well-being.

Immediate evenings and weekend availability! Most of us are looking for peace, wellness, and a connection to others and and at times in our lives those things can feel so far away. Whether it be a recent loss, move, health diagnosis or child’s behavior, these changes can make us feel overwhelmed and disconnected. Through our time together I am confident you will be able to identify ways to navigate these changes and feel better. The therapeutic relationship is important and I intend to co-create a space that is comfortable and judgment free so that growth can happen. We might paint together or drink tea while we meet.

Welcome. I’m glad you’re here; seeking therapy takes courage. Do you feel disconnected from yourself or others and find yourself hiding the innermost parts of yourself? On the outside, you may appear you’ve got everything together, but on the inside you feel inadequate, not worthy, or unlovable. Have you found yourself tearing up at “inner child” TikToks? Are you feeling ready to dig into the “tough stuff” from your past? I can help.

Everyone is molded from their experiences, perspectives, and identities which can shaped a sense of reality. Our racial identity, social class, sexuality, and ethnic backgrounds shapes us in developing wisdom/techniques of resiliency to endure distressing moments. These same experiences can become increasingly distressing which can lead us into believing unauthentic beliefs of who we really are. For healing to take place, a requirement of safety/security need to be present in order for authenticity to be formed. Often is the case where strength and growth is developed when faced with the discomforts of the past.

Are you struggling to manage the stress of every day life? Does it feel like nothing will ever get better? What if I told you you already have all the answers? I walk with people to help them better understand themselves, and find the path forward that fits them.
