Initiating therapy together is a courageous act of advocacy, a transformative step towards healing and growth in your relationship. It's a profound choice that honors your past and unlocks pathways to more fulfilling ways of navigating life’s challenges. Whether you're facing concerns around your relationships, sexuality and intimacy, parenting, communication, or conflict resolution, my goal is to provide a space where you can be seen, heard, and understood. I welcome all family structures and partnerships, including polyamorous, LGBTQIA+, and interracial relationships, supporting you in finding joy, wellness, and balance.
My work as a Marriage and Family Therapy practitioner takes a holistic, Systems approach to understanding relationships within families and groups. Using a person-centered and trauma-informed approach, I create a safe, inclusive space to explore how your connections shape your experiences and guide you towards meaningful, holistic change.
I believe in the transformative power of vulnerability and the unique stories each person holds. Together, we can navigate your experience, fostering connection and awareness. If you would like to explore your narrative and embrace holistic change, I invite you to reach out and begin this profound journey with me.
