In my practice, I work with individuals and couples navigating trauma, anxiety, grief, and relationship distress. I partner with adult clients with calm, curiosity, and compassion creating a toward healing, greater emotional connection, and deeper sense of well being. My work integrates evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including attachment-based, mindfulness, trauma-informed, and emotionally focused modalities. I have advanced training in IFS, AEDP, and EMDR, and as a Certified EMDR Therapist, I provide specialized treatment focused on reducing emotional pain and supporting meaningful, lasting healing.
For couples, I offer Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, (EFCT), a research-supported approach that helps partners strengthen trust, communication, and connection. I help couples recognize their negative cycles that keep them stuck and guide them toward rebuilding security, closeness, and emotional intimacy.
Seeking counseling can feel overwhelming and takes courage. With more than 25 years of experience in diverse clinical settings and in private practice since 2008, I am honored to support clients in building on their strengths and developing the confidence, hope, and tools needed to move forward.
