Waitlist for new clients
I love a diverse caseload but have special expertise in trauma work, relationship issues (co-dependence, setting boundaries, self-esteem), life transitions (especially for women), and late teen/coIlege-aged adults.
My ideal client is an adult or late teen/young adult, with an interest in improving and transforming their life via therapy. I focus on the whole person, contextualizing presenting problems/diagnoses within the framework of family dynamics, peer relations, trauma history, physical health, and job/school experience. That is, I don't consider it useful to assume that issues arise in a vacuum! The greatest gift my clients give me is their ability to teach me far more than I could possibly teach them. I consider our time in session one of validation, hope, and intense curiosity about my client's lives.

As we travel the journey together, you will experience an effective, original approach for healing both from recent wounds and from old wounds imported into the relationship and current family dynamics from childhood.
I am a Certified Imago Therapist and am passionate about working with couples of all kinds. I help couples live out their wildest dreams for themselves and their relationships. Maybe your relationship/marriage is in crisis or failing. Maybe it's stagnant or full of conflict and, sensing this, your children are beginning to act out in ways that baffle you. Maybe you have become overwhelmed by parenthood and wonder how you and your spouse have managed to drift so far apart and feel so frantic and disconnected. My sessions focus on couples' strengths and resources rather than pathology.

If you want a thriving, loving, strong, empathic relationship/marriage you both will need the skills & patience to build it together.
My specialty is "COUPLES." The work I do with couples is not covered by insurance(s). I specialize in using Imago relationship therapy, attachment theory, somatic therapy & neuroscience. The issues that concern couples are usually styles of communication, infidelity, conflict, racial distress, commitment & navigating differences. I work with couples on a "short-term" private intensive basis beginning with a 2-hr assessment that gives you hope and insight into areas of strength and growth. My philosophy is grounded in the idea that relationship are an adventure to be had; not a problem to be solved.

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.

I value our therapeutic relationship above any therapeutic model I may use.
Life is “life-ing.” Things are changing and you’re starting to feel overwhelmed, anxious, and irritable. Now it’s impacting your relationships, your job, your health, and how you feel towards yourself. You’re feeling unsure if this is “bad enough” to talk to someone. If this is you, I’m so glad you’re here and the answer is, “Yes, this is absolutely something to bring to therapy!” Even if they are good ones, changes can sometimes be more than we have bargained for and create a lot of stress and anxiety. Learning skills to cope and connect with yourself and others can help you grow through life challenges.

It is a brave thing to reach out and get help for yourself or your relationship and I look forward to hearing from you.
Seeking out therapy for yourself or your relationship can be an intimidating endeavor for so many reasons. It can be difficult to find time in your busy schedule with work and kids, challenging finding a therapist who is a good fit, or facing the fear of addressing things you've avoided for so long. Whatever has brought you here, whether it is the desire for more connection in your relationship, a body that feels less burdened by the past, needing to get un-stuck from harmful patterns, or even the smallest bit of hope for growth within yourself, I am glad you're seeking out help and hope I can help you in your journey.

You’ve been carrying around old habits, patterns, and beliefs that no longer serve you. They seem like part of who you are, even though deep down you know that they are not. You may feel trapped by addictions, whether they’re overt or subtle. Maybe you’re caught in a toxic relationship cycle, unable to break free from the same old story. Sometimes it’s not even the outside event, but the beliefs and feelings that are the problem—those voices in your head telling you that you're broken, that you're stuck, that you don’t deserve more. It makes it hard to imagine life any other way, but things can change.

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.
