People turn to me when they're wrestling with deep, painful conflict, even if that conflict is within themselves. I tend to focus on interrelationships. This includes couples (together, apart or considering separation), step-families, and parents & adult children. Clients often have some commonalities when they reach out, including feeling trapped in Groundhog Day-level fights with loved ones. Or they're sweeping their needs under the rug to tend to everyone else. Or they're contemplating divorce or estrangement because the tension feels unbearable. Or they're tired of acting in ways that don't align with who they really are.
We'll start with what feels helpful for you — sometimes that’s having a safe sounding board; other times it’s having a co-problem solver with tools beside you. I'll help you feel genuinely listened to, and then we'll explore what possibilities await within yourself and your relationship. I can see you alone or with your loved one, or some combo of both.
Clients seek me out because I'm clear-headed, informed, and deeply hopeful. In all, I draw on a career & training in communications and family mediation, as well as my own experiences as a wife, daughter, parent, stepparent, stepchild and fellow vulnerable human. If you want more peace in your life, I'm a firm believer there's a way to get it. Happy to chat.

Sometimes we'll focus on emotions - unpacking and feeling them. Other times, we'll turn our attention to motion by looking at taking tiny steps toward a life you'd prefer. The work we do will feel supportive, always. It might even feel energizing or liberating. And when it's tricky or tough, I'll help you navigate. (And, as odd as it sounds, we might even end up having a few laughs as we go).

I aim to balance gentle, trauma-informed practices with practical hands-on tools. I lean on compassion-based IFS (Internal Family Systems), the Emotion Focused work of Sue Johnson, as well as the neurobiological data from Dr. Bruce Perry on staying regulated and connected during conflict of any kind.
