If you have ever felt like life is a slippery slope and you’re losing your grip, you are not alone! I specialize in relationships. It can be the relationship you have with your family, or the one you have with yourself. Maybe it’s even the relationship you have with work.

I believe in the power of the professional therapeutic relationship to support clients with safety, unconditional positive regard, and autonomy, and I use a collaborative approach to process current stressors, seek clarity, and develop goals for change.
Beginning the search for a therapist can feel daunting. You've taken the first step on a path to growth, healing, and change. Through my experience and training as an educator and as a mental health professional, I have discovered the power of human connection and the transformation we can experience when we are seen, heard, and supported without condition or judgement. I support adolescents and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, life transitions, grief, identity, and environmental stressors, and partnered folks who feel stuck in patterns that no longer work for their relationship.

Waitlist for new clients
I help individual adults and couples to… •Navigate and reduce military-related work and life stress •Understand and cope with the symptoms of trauma •Learn how to heal attachment •Learn and ingrain healthy communication skills that actually help •Build intimacy in relationship, both physical and emotional •Set healthy boundaries to encourage closeness.
My work is based on attachment theory and my primary modalities are Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for individuals and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples. My clients are people for whom high stress has formed a wedge between themselves and the people they love. They want to reconnect with their emotions and reengage in their relationships but are not sure how. Stress can cause us to isolate, which then causes additional stress which increases our likelihood to isolate further in a vicious cycle that can feel endless. Don’t worry, I can help with that.

Life is beautiful, but it can be hard to face the challenges that come with it sometimes. Whether it be medical issues, family/ relationship problems, or just common life stresses, all of us have challenges to overcome. Some challenges are short-lived and can be overcome with small adaptations of our mindset and/or coping strategies. Others, however, can be quite daunting and complex, such as trauma and addiction. I believe that regardless of the issues we face, we all want basically the same things - to feel safe and comfortable with ourselves, within our relationships, and in the world.

I work with clients from a variety of backgrounds about concerns such as stress, depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, career changes, trauma, loss and grief, and other mental health concerns.
Does it seem like life is sometimes a little overwhelming? That you don't always seem to have a handle on how to navigate the daily stressors and life changes? Do you struggle to make genuine connections with new people or just have nothing left in your gas tank at the end of each day to foster the relationships you do have? You aren't alone. And counseling is a great place to explore these feelings and find a new, more fulfilling path forward.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
