Do you feel like you’re always giving more than you get in relationships? Whether it’s codependency, gaslighting, or feeling invisible, I help people untangle toxic patterns and reconnect with their sense of self. Relationship stress can take many forms—feeling stuck in codependent or enmeshed dynamics, navigating emotional abuse, or coping with the impact of a partner or family member’s substance use. These challenges can leave you anxious, overwhelmed, or questioning your own reality. If you’ve ever thought, “Why don’t things feel right?” even if you can’t fully explain it—you’re not alone.

When relationships become unbalanced, it’s common to lose touch with your own needs and sense of worth. Therapy can be a place to slow down, gain clarity, and heal from gaslighting, emotional abuse, or the effects of substance use in your family system. With support, you can begin to trust yourself again and create healthier, more fulfilling connections.

My goal is to help you rewrite your relationship story—one that feels lighter, more authentic, and aligned with the connections you truly want, whether with a partner, family, friends, or colleagues. If you’re looking for support in navigating codependency, relationship anxiety, or recovery from toxic patterns, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
