The education of a therapist never ends, so I regularly train with leading relationship experts.
Do you want to have better, healthier, happier relationships with yourself and other people? I’m passionate about helping individuals and couples improve the relationships they have with themselves and each other so they can experience more meaning in their lives, and become their most authentic selves. If you feel “stuck” or unhappy in your current relationship, dream of having a healthy and satisfying partnership, keep repeating the same old relationship patterns, or want to love yourself and accept more deeply, I can help.

This psycho-educational support is to help parents improve their skills, work on issues related to parent-child relationship, and family dynamics.
Seeking support after the death of a loved one, or preparing for the death of a loved one, can be overwhelming. The focus of my work is to support individuals, families, couples, and children/teenagers when they are dealing with the challenges of loss due to an illness or other issues related to loss. I strive to help my clients cope with the difficult prospects of loss such as death, suicide, divorce, marital discord, terminal illness, chronic illness, job loss, and the challenges it brings to the client, and their family.

Each therapy encounter and relationship is tailored to meet the client's individual needs.
I typically work with high functioning people trying to regain a sense of control over their lives. Depression, anxiety, as well as other difficulties stem from relational problems, both past and present, that when explored lead to symptom relief. This can be done in individual, group, or couples therapy.

I primarily use an integration of PACT (Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy) and attachment theory.
Relationships are a lot of work, and they can be your greatest source of joy. I find that couples today are carrying more than we were ever designed to carry on our own. This is why I feel so passionate about supporting people that want to grow their love together. I believe we are all lifelong learners when it comes to relationships and that marriage and parenthood are designed to keep us humble.

I counsel individuals, couples, & groups.
I believe that therapy involves a collaboration between the client/s and the therapist. If a client is not part of the decisions, the ideas, the relationship, and the motivation, achieving the desired change is much more difficult. I understand that being in a relationship of any kind can be difficult and I believe that everyone needs help navigating the obstacles that we are bound to encounter in love, family, friends & life. I love being a part of that process. My role as a therapist is to collaborate with, empathize with, support, understand, and encourage my clients. I do this through face to face as well as tele/video therapy.
