My experience and strengths include supporting people heal from trauma, including childhood abuse and neglect, fractured family bonds as well as adult sexual assault. I support people who experience depression, anxiety and low self-esteem and confidence. I also support couple's reduce conflict, increase their ability to hold their own and their partners' emotions, strengthen emotional security in each other, (especially after infidelity) and help them reignite sexual intimacy.
I am an Emotional Focused Couple's and Individual therapist (EFT). EFT is a therapeutic model based on attachment theory that strengthens emotional bonds to create emotional security within ourself, others and the world. I am a Family Constellation Facilitator and also use Radical Exposure Tapping (Laurie McKinnon) for resolving traumatic experiences.
Therapy is a process that takes time and commitment. Disentangling our psycho-emotional wounds, brings up discomfort and distress. My job as a therapist is to compassionately guide you through this discomfort, and reassure you that healing happens when we are willing to go deep within ourselves. It takes a courageous heart to enter therapy .

I primarily use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), a humanistic, evidence-based approach to psychotherapy, drawing primarily from attachment theory to facilitate the creation of secure, vibrant connection with self and others. Rooted in the science of emotions and attachment, EFT helps clients identify and transform the negative processing and interaction patterns that create distress.
