About me
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (MT5323) that has experience working with individuals and couples to find the balance, healing, and peace in life, within themselves, and in their relationships.
Tired of feeling stuck or repeating the same patterns without understanding why you can’t seem to break free no matter how hard you try? Sometimes all that is needed is a change in strategy. Sometimes influence from a previous or current relationship takes away the ability to trust yourself. It may feel like you’re constantly playing tug of war with yourself. Often there is shame, guilt, and other negative feelings attached. Seeking help in these situations doesn't mean you are broken or weak, but rather human. It takes courage and strength to ask for help. Be proud of yourself and know that there is hope it won’t always be this way.
I offer sessions where we explore negative interaction patterns, things from your life experiences that may be holding you back, attachment styles, and how those things contribute to how you respond. I also help those in unhealthy relationships heal and get on the right track to have secure attachment and healthier, satisfying relationships. I incorporate IFS and EFT concepts for individuals based on their needs and EFT, Gottman, Imago, and Prepare Enrich principles into couples counseling. I focus on what you need, toxic relationships, trauma, communication, attachment style, and how those things impact your ability to form relationships. I work with you to turn negative interaction patterns into meaningful, positive interactions where everyone involved feels heard and understood. This helps strengthen, enhance, and empower long lasting, well balanced connections and relationships. My first priority is to build a safe place for anyone involved to be able to express their feelings and thoughts. My second priority is to ensure you are getting what you need from therapy. In my practice, you are not just another number, you matter and I genuinely want to help you grow, heal, and become the best version of yourself.
I am cash/credit only at this time which has many benefits to you as a client. No insurance company will be tracking or keeping record of your diagnosis/personal information. No insurance company will dictate your treatment goals, length, or plan. This offers an approach tailored to you, for you.
