Given that relationships are my specialty, the therapeutic relationship is hugely important to me.
Life is messy. You're stuck and scouring the internet for therapists out of desperate hope that things can be better. You can't get out of your head, the same thoughts keep playing on repeat - you don't want things to stay this way. You just want to feel happy again, engage with life the way you want to, and I'm here to help you move past the hurdles you're facing. We'll work to identify patterns that are keeping you stuck so we can figure out what’s working for you, what isn’t, and how you want things to be different. I’ll provide accountable and compassionate care as we search for the solutions you're looking for together.

I have specialized training to treat you and your relationship as a whole.
It feels like you don't even know how to talk to the people in your own home anymore. It hasn't always been this way, but for awhile now, you and your significant other just aren't on the same page. Maybe it feels like you don't really know your kids, ever since they've become teenagers it's like you can't communicate with them. You miss having the real intimacy with your spouse. You miss being close with your family. You want that again but it feels like there's this wall between you, everything is a fight, and you don't know how to fix it.

It is an experiential model, meaning that the three of us work together in session to co-create a different experience in the relationship - then the two of you continue it outside of the therapy room.
I work with couples who want to communicate differently and connect on a deeper level. Couples who are ready to do deep work together that fundamentally changes not just the relationship but also helps each partner to grow individually. Together we work to create sustainable changes in the relationship that will shift interactions and the way of being together. The work we do helps each person gain new insights into their own perspective, as well as accessing perspectives of their partner.

I especially enjoy working with couples. I think one of my strengths is balancing my comments and attention so that both members of a couple feel they have been heard and validated. I fully believe that the highest indicator of the usefulness of therapy is the therapeutic relationship I am able to develop with my clients. I am LGBTQ friendly in a town where many people are tremendously judgmental and closed. Providing a safe place for my clients to be themselves is a priority.

I strive to create a warm, collaborative, flexible, and non-judgmental space; and offer clients a relationship characterized by respect for their experiences, sensitivity to their identities and cultures, and a genuine desire to hear their stories so that I can learn how they interpret, interact with, and communicate regarding their unique worlds.
Far too often, life does not go as we hope or plan. It is at those times that we can truly benefit from supportive others showing us that we are not alone, and the powerful experience of someone validating, while also empowering us to overcome, our challenges. I believe that therapy is a space that can offer this support, and I value the chance to help individuals navigate life's transitions and obstacles. Through my training and work experiences, I have learned to empathize, and work effectively, with college students and individuals across the lifespan, from diverse backgrounds, and with a wide-range of concerns.

You deserve healing and clarity regardless of your role in the relationship.
Does your relationship feel like it’s barely hanging on by a thread? Have you gotten to a place where honest communication feels impossible or ineffective? Maybe you’ve been unfaithful and can’t untangle the feelings and thoughts of your decisions. Or perhaps you feel betrayed by your partner and it’s left you without a sense of direction. Could it be that you just feel disconnected and don't know how you've gotten here?

Life can feel overwhelming. One minute it's your job, then your relationship, next the kid(s), your family, and maybe even painful memories from your childhood. You just can't seem to catch a break. You try everything to get on the right track, but something always seems to get in the way. You've tried so hard to climb out of the worry, frustration and sadness; but eventually it's just exhausting. Should you give up? Or maybe just do the bare minimum to get by. You don't know which way to turn.

I believe that deep down everyone desires a relationship where we feel understood and cared for and that our partner can see our hard efforts to be there for them.
Couples often enter my office feeling like their best efforts to share with their partner are met with anger, defensiveness or nothing at all. They so badly want to feel close and understood, but with each attempt to reach out they once again feel hurt and alone. Their partner often feels like despite their best efforts, they keep hearing what they got wrong leaving them feeling like they can’t ever seem to get it right. As these stuck places continue, of course it is easy to start to feel exhausted and hopeless as it seems you are all out of moves and maybe even tired of trying.

Healing and change can occur with compassion, empathy, and a safe therapeutic relationship.
Thank you for taking the first step on this journey and seeking help. This is no easy feat. Self-work and change can feel daunting. As a result, we often feel stuck, unable to access or implement fundamental life changes even with several tools under our belt. I specialize in working with adults and couples implementing evidence based modalities such as CBT, DBT, and ACT. Issues that I specialize in include working with trauma, mood/anxiety disorders, depression and relationship difficulties. I provide tele-health services, either over the phone or using a secure video platform.

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.
