Are you tired of feeling alone in your relationship—even when you’re sitting right next to your partner? Do the same arguments keep playing out, leaving you feeling disconnected, misunderstood, or like you're walking on eggshells? Maybe you’re the one always trying to repair, always trying to understand, and wondering if it’s ever going to feel balanced. I work with individuals and couples who are ready to shift old patterns, who want to feel seen in their relationship, and who are craving the safety to express themselves without fear of conflict or shutdown.

Whether you're navigating deep emotional wounds, everyday disconnection, or the weight of unspoken resentment, we’ll work together to bring clarity, confidence, and connection back into your relationship.

My approach is direct, compassionate, and grounded in real life. I help you meet yourself and your partner with understanding—not through someone else’s lens, but from a place of self-trust and honesty. If you're ready to do the work, I’m here to support you through it—one conversation at a time.

Not too long after we begin together, you may start to hear another voice, along side the critical voice in your head, telling you that there is another way to think about any given situation or moment. My hope is that one day this voice will gain strength, you will begin to notice the opportunities in front of you and that you will find more moments of beauty throughout each day.
