Life is difficult. All of us are faced with stress, pain, loss, and feeling out of control in our lives.

As a marriage and family therapist, my professional training was focused on treating couple and family-based issues. I particularly enjoy working with couples who feel disconnected and at a loss for how to communicate and feel close again, those who long for more vulnerability and honesty in their relationships, and who recognize the need to work together through their individual "baggage" in order to create healthier connection. If this feels like it describes your relationship, I think my emotionally-focused approach can help provide the relief you've longed for.

Your emotions have become difficult to manage and seem to be controlling your life. Anger, fear, or sadness have become overwhelming. You try to act like everything is okay even though you feel as if everything is falling apart. Work is getting harder to deal with, school feels too demanding to keep up with, and home life is in disarray. You don’t even want to think about relationships; those seem to be a complete mess most of the time. You’ve tried self-help books and podcasts to feel better, but they never seem to last. You’re tired of feeling so miserable all the time. You just wish there was someone to help.

Just when things start to get better, the sadness, anger, or anxiety inevitably builds up again. Emotions have become hard to manage; you’ve been doing and saying things you regret and don’t know why. This is not the way you pictured your life going. Life has become so overwhelming it seems easier to stay in bed, but that doesn’t make things better either. You want to work toward your goals and feel productive, but you lack the energy and motivation to do so. You truly want life to be better but don’t know how or if it’s even possible.

I have seen many clients come in with a huge weight on their shoulders. They need someone to talk to, someone who can validate their experience and someone who can help them see that there is hope. It is such a privilege to sit with clients, hear their stories, strive to understand their pain and show them that relief and healing are possible.

I believe there is a purpose in everything that we do and in everything that happens to us. “As soon as we are able to find meaning in suffering, then the suffering is over.” A big part of my approach is helping you let go — to really feel what you need to feel from your past, and then to find the meaning to help you move forward. I have a lot of good experience helping people discover what their purpose is by building self-worth, as well as helping people let go of their pain. I believe that our light doesn’t shine based on how positively we think, but rather on how much of our past darkness we embrace.

Navigating broken trust, disconnect, and pain in a marriage can be debilitating. Creating space for meaningful connection is my priority. As a therapist, increasing healing through understanding is my goal. In therapy, I recognize that while some things require change, others simply require acceptance. As you show up with the vulnerable parts of yourself, I strive to create an environment of acceptance and connection. We all need help sometimes, and sometimes just that little bit of help makes all the difference. I'm here to take this step with you in your marriage, family, or individual lives.

One of the most important protective factors against most mental health concerns is having a support system full of safe and genuine relationships. I believe that the quality of the relationships you have with others and with yourself ultimately impacts your quality of life. I can be but one of those pillars of support as I help empower individuals and families to take control of their own life and make of it what they so desire! I want to provide a safe space where you can unlearn and rethink the unsafe behaviors/thought processes that have kept you safe in the past but continue to hold you back from realizing your full potential.
