Do you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected? If you're ready for something to change, therapy can help. I invite you to take that first step today. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, self-doubt, or navigating life transitions & relationship struggles: you don't have to do it alone. Therapy can be a space to step out of survival mode and into self-understanding, clarity, & connection. Therapy with me is active, collaborative, and integrative - I use various modalities (attachment-focused psychodynamic therapy, EMDR, EFT, CBT, TF-CBT, mindfulness, etc.) to best serve the specific needs of my clients.
With children, I use play, art, and sand tray therapy to help them process emotions in the ways they express best. With teens, I provide a safe space to explore emotions while navigating independence - balancing privacy with family connection. When engaging in relationship/couples work, I use the Gottman Method and/or Emotionally-Focused Couples Therapy.
My work is grounded in attachment theory because how we relate to ourselves and others shapes everything. Healing happens in relationships - and feeling truly seen in therapy is essential for deep change. If it seems like we’d be a good fit, I’d love to support you on this journey.
