Every relationship tells a story—of longing, closeness, distance, and the courage to try again. Often, these stories become tangled, leaving us feeling stuck between others or within ourselves. At the heart of it all is a fundamental human need: to feel seen, safe, and understood. Whether you are navigating the dance of moving toward and pulling away or seeking comfort in solitude, these cycles can leave you feeling isolated. I help you untangle these patterns, honoring the deep longing for connection that drives us all. Together, we begin the journey toward genuine healing.
I help couples and individuals rebuild closeness by bringing awareness to hidden dynamics. Through empathy and curiosity, I support the repair process after conflict, creating a safe space where trust grows and expression becomes easier. This isn't about "fixing" things; it’s about finding your way back to yourself and each other with meaning and clarity.
My path began in senior care, witnessing the quiet realities of grief—its sorrow, guilt, and relief. Grief reshapes our identity and relationships. Whether you’re mourning a person, a transition, or a loss within your partnership, I walk alongside you to explore these feelings with care, helping you carry your loss with honesty and newfound meaning.

I specialized in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), a powerful evidence-based couples therapy that helps couples rebuild secure emotional attachment bonds. In EFT, you'll both reflect on the choreographed conflict loop you've gotten stuck in and take mutual accountability for the understandable (but hurtful) things that you do. We help you leaving those tough talks feeling relieved and connected!
