I am passionate about empowering individuals to free themselves from unnecessary suffering. Many of us feel stuck — held back by past experiences, trauma, current circumstances, future worries, limiting beliefs, or coping mechanisms that no longer serve us. Therapy provides a unique opportunity to explore these struggles in a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment.
I offer a gentle and collaborative approach to help you better understand yourself, heal, and move forward with greater confidence and freedom. My goal is to meet you where you are and help you reconnect with your strengths, resilience, and capacity for change.
When working with couples, I use the Gottman Method, a research-based approach that identifies the patterns and issues impacting your relationship. By using evidence-based strategies tailored to your needs, we can work together to rebuild connection, improve communication, and create lasting positive change.
Whether you are seeking to improve the quality of your life, find your life purpose or make sense of experiences you’ve had, I invite you to book a complimentary 15-minute 'get to know each other' appointment with absolutely no obligation.
