You may be feeling disconnected from your partner, stuck in recurring conflict, or unsure how to repair trust after hurt or emotional distance. You might be navigating a major relationship transition such as commitment decisions, premarital preparation, separation, or rebuilding after betrayal. You may notice the same patterns repeating and want help understanding what is happening beneath the surface. Ultimately, you want more emotional closeness, clearer communication, and a relationship that feels secure, respectful, and supportive rather than exhausting, tense, or confusing.

I also work with addictions, major life transitions, and the emotional effects of serious health or insurance-related challenges.

I work with individuals, couples, and parent-child pairs who find themselves at a breaking point. This may show up as a loss of direction, ongoing conflict, emotional distance, or a sense that familiar ways of coping no longer work. Rather than rushing to repair or stabilize these moments, my approach treats rupture as meaningful. Therapy becomes a space to slow down, listen closely, and learn how to stay present when certainty and control fall away. The goal is to help you develop a deeper capacity to live and relate within change, complexity, and uncertainty.
