Let’s face it – looking for a therapist isn’t easy. The process takes time, energy and bandwidth that are in short supply for you right now. Whether you need help for your yourself or your relationship, you're in the right place. I'm here to help you get curious about what's happening, start feeling better, find new solutions, and get back on track so you're living and loving with more ease, joy and vitality. You'll learn to express your feelings, work with negative thoughts, rewrite limiting beliefs, and explore what's holding you back from the past so you can move forward in your life.
If you’re needing help for your relationship, we’ll get clear on the situation at hand and begin finding ways to resolve it. I'll help you strengthen your bond, navigate roadblocks, talk with each other, and restore your sexual connection. You'll begin to foster tenderness, affection and care for each other and start feeling like loving partners again.
Even if you don’t feel 100% ready, I encourage you to go ahead and reach out. I offer a free initial phone consultation so we’ll just start with that and go from there. I think you'll find my style is warm, caring and attentive, and working with me will help you or you and your partner feel welcome, cared for and safe. Let's get you where you want to be.
