About me
I am a skilled individual and couples therapist that focuses on the relationship between parterns who truly care for each other.
Feeling disconnected in your relationships? Feeling overwhelmed? Struggling to connect with those that matter most in your life? Sometimes life can be complicated and chaotic, which leaves the most capable and successful people feeling hurt and disconnected. I honor your courage in taking this first step to seek healing. Perhaps you are here because you feel stuck in your life, marriage or family; whatever pain you may be experiencing, it would be a privilege to partner with you on your journey towards greater peace and freedom as you break free of painful cycles and embrace peace in your life and relationships.
I am skilled in walking with individuals through relational stresses, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, trauma and identity formation. I am trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy and the Gottman Method. I value creating a safe and authentic environment where we can use your strengths to create the movement you are seeking.
I promise to work with you to create an affirming space that is safe and nonjudgmental to explore the uncomfortableness of life’s stressors. We might laugh and we might cry and, together, we will venture into the painful and beautiful parts of your story. I would love to walk alongside you, please contact me to see if I might be a good fit for you.
