About me

I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist who works with individuals, couples, and families, with a particular focus on the patterns playing out in our closest relationships - the recurring conflicts, communication breakdowns, and unspoken dynamics that keep people stuck. Whether you're navigating something on your own or working through it together, I aim to help clients see these patterns more clearly and build healthier ways of connecting.
I use a systemic lens and Internal Family Systems (IFS), along with extensive training in anxiety treatment and dialectical behavioral therapy, and bring a background in adolescent mental health to my work with clients of all ages.
My approach uses compassion, candor, and humor to help set goals and achieve real, lasting change. I create a safe space for real exploration and growth, and I know that the right therapeutic fit makes all the difference. I'd love to talk with you about what you're looking for and we can determine together whether my approach is the right fit for you.
