Relationships are at the core of our being. They enrich our daily lives, fuel new experiences, and are one of the most important ways we come to know ourselves. All of us feel the need to belong and connect with others; we strive to be accepted in ways that feel genuine, meaningful and satisfying. Unhealthy relationships can take their toll, but good relationships improve all aspects of life, strengthening health, mind, and connections with others. However, all relationships can fall off track and go through periods of conflict, or be impacted by trauma, which may lead us to feel frustrated, stuck, dissatisfied, and/or frightened.

I work with goal-oriented women who want to succeed in breaking through old patterns of trauma, pain, and anxiety and who want to achieve their impossible. People often come to me when they have been talk therapy and feel frustrated by lack of change. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, grief, relationship difficulties, or chronic and/or acute trauma, I applaud you for reaching out for help. The first step is believing that things can be different. I believe in the innate wholeness of all human beings and am inspired daily by the resilience and fortitude of the people whom I see. My mantra is: Hope. Belief. Change. Growth.

The most rewarding thing I do is help people create more intimacy & vulnerability with themselves and others. One of my main focuses is helping clients embrace their relationships in healthier ways. I enjoy working with clients who have blocks that are keeping them from desired romantic relationships. Together we can address underlying stresses from trauma or current triggers and work through them, developing new coping skills along the way. I believe individuals understand their strengths and limitations best, and so my task will be in helping to deepen awareness.
