As a Couples and Family therapist I help individuals, couples and families achieve relationship satisfaction, gain a deeper understanding of self and each other and heal from wounds that are negatively impacting the ability to heal.

Either way, something needs to be addressed in order to fully blossom, and my clients are willing to do the work to address it.

I have a compassionate and strengths-based approach to therapy. I believe that it is the relationship we build together that empowers you to work towards your goals.

We all deserve a space that is exclusively ours. A non-judgmental, accepting, and healing space where we can transform our minds, feelings, and experiences. A space to reflect and grow.

The identities you carry are seen, valued, and celebrated. I consider all aspects of your life, including the systems and environments that impact us.
