Your relationship with yourself impacts all your relationships. When you’re unhappy, anxious, depressed, disconnected, or just stuck, navigating these problems alone may feel overwhelming. I'll work with you to address your stumbling blocks, build resiliency, and develop skills so you can create the life you want, one that includes nurturing and fulfilling relationships (including the one you have with yourself). Whether we’re doing individual or couples therapy, I’ll support you, meeting you where you are while helping you heal, learn, and grow so you get to where you want to be.

Over the past 20 plus years, I've completed numerous training & certifications, written books & been interviewed on the subject of relationships, and worked with countless clients on improving theirs. It’s my passion and privilege to help clients create a life filled with nourishing, joyful relationships, starting with the one you have with yourself.

As a mom, wife, & daughter, I’ve been in the relationship trenches. Because I personally know how transformative good relationships can be, I’m passionate about helping people create great ones for themselves. I offer a free consult because not every therapist is a good fit & that's ok. The most important thing is for you to feel comfortable.

I work with clients who want better relationships, with themselves & others. I'm especially effective with clients who are personally stuck, or involved in high conflict or unsatisfying relationships. I quickly identify underlying issues & dynamics, & then work with you to develop awareness & skills to turn things around. My clients generally experience a rapid shift toward relational fulfillment.

Because every therapeutic relationship is different, I don't believe in using a cookie cutter approach. I draw on many different theoretical approaches and, no matter which theory I'm drawing on, my focus remains on improving your relationships (starting with the one you have with yourself) and meeting your unique needs. Above all, my approach is collaborative, relational, and supportive.
