Are you feeling stressed, anxious, irritable, or disillusioned? Life can be challenging, confusing, and painful, but it can also be full of meaning, satisfaction, and joy.

While we possess many innate tools to cope effectively with adversity, there are many factors that can serve as barriers to achieving and maintaining a healthy balance in life. Whether these barriers relate to internal processes or external circumstances, I believe that it is often beneficial for us to practice vocalizing our experience to others. Doing so can serve as a protective factor, helping us to cope more effectively with any radical internal monologues that may pop up from time to time.

Focusing on the connection the couple does have, we can work on the skills to being our own individual within the relationship.

I utilize a multitude of maps to offer my clients impactful and effective interventions.

Accompaniment matters. Relationships transform. We sit together to access the health that is at the center of every human being, even when one of us can’t feel it.
