Are you feeling stuck in cycles of conflict and misunderstanding in your relationships? Do you long for deeper connections but find yourself facing barriers you can't seem to overcome? As a therapist specializing in relationship issues, I am here to offer you a guiding hand on your journey towards healing and connection. With a warm, empathetic approach, I provide a safe and supportive space to explore your feelings, build effective communication, and foster healthier relationships. My focus areas include anxiety, depression, childhood trauma, PTSD, Complex PTSD, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and relationship concerns.
My approach is holistic and grounded in psychodynamic, humanistic, and somatic orientations, I use a range of trauma modalities like Internal Family Systems (IFS), (EMDR), Emotion Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT), Somatic Experiencing (SE), Brainspotting (BSP), and more to tailor sessions to your unique needs. I actively engage with you and provide feedback.
Embark on a journey of growth and self-discovery through trauma-informed care. Together, we’ll explore patterns, build relationship skills, and create a roadmap for change. Accelerate healing with 90-minute, 2-, and 3-hour intensives, ideal for deeper breakthroughs. Schedule a free consultation to start creating the fulfilling life you deserve.
