I specialize in relational issues related to poor communication,
infidelity
, difficulties with dating, ending a relationship, sexual desire & intimacy, and consensual non-monogamy.
You deserve to feel seen, heard, and to know you matter in your relationships. Connection is key to good mental health. Connection with ourselves, our romantic partner(s), our family, and our friends. Many of our issues stem from our relationships. Whether it is a current relationship or trauma hanging around from childhood or past experiences. I want to help you achieve the relationship you deserve whether that is with your partner(s), self or, family, grieving the loss of a relationship, breaking negative patterns, deciding to stay or go, dating, or exploring your relationship orientation or structure.

I have helped individuals work through anxiety, depression, familial difficulties, trauma,
infidelity
, burnout, and self-esteem issues.
My work focuses on collaborating with clients on their journey of self-discovery and healing. Painful and difficult emotions often arise after a particular experience or life event, but sometimes it is difficult to understand exactly where they came from. These difficult emotions often lead to a sense of stagnation in life and a sense of disconnect from yourself and/or your surroundings. I help clients gain awareness into their inner universe in order to help them understand both their adaptive and maladaptive responses to past and present experiences.

I work best with adults and specialize in treating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and helping couples recover from the trauma of
infidelity
.
Life is a series of transformations; some so subtle that they happen without much of our awareness. Sometimes the stressors that force these transitions leave us confused, frustrated, and at a loss, trying to cope with a host of novel, never-before-experienced feelings and emotions. They wreak havoc on our lives, disrupt our personal and professional relationships, and prevent us from living to our fullest potential. I see my role as helping you move through these changes, process the losses, and gain insight into the patterns that are no longer effective.

Relationships can be hard. Partners struggle with communication, conflicting parenting styles, sexual expressions... Life's challenges, hurtful fights, history of trauma or
infidelity
make it difficult to sustain trust and closeness. How can you create desired connections, and not lose yourself in the process? How can you be true both to self and to your partnership? I invite you to explore these questions together with empathy and curiosity, letting go of habitual judgments, self-deprecation, and shame. I work with individuals, couples, and families. Both traditional and alternative lifestyles are welcome, and no issue is a taboo.

There comes a time for many of us when we need to seek additional help, even if we have a strong, loving support network. Therapy is different than other types of support. It is goal-directed, and aimed toward self-discovery and accessing your own internal abilities. It is a collaboration between you, the expert on yourself, and a skilled therapist who can assist you in navigating through difficult situations and healing painful parts of yourself. I treat individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship/marriage challenges (including
infidelity
), and difficult life transitions.

Infidelity Therapists
How does therapy for infidelity work?
A skilled infidelity therapist will provide a safe space for clients to communicate their feelings and concerns. The goal is to be completely honest about what led to the cheating and how it has affected the entire family to prevent it from recurring in the future. The therapist will help the clients work on rebuilding mutual trust and respect and developing better communication and conflict-resolution skills. If the goal is to remain a couple, clients will learn the “danger signs” for their specific relationship, and they will make a renewed commitment to be faithful.
How long does therapy for infidelity take?
Recovery from infidelity can take time, and it can vary from person to person. Generally, a therapist will want to see the clients at least once a week for around six months. Then the sessions can be arranged as needed, depending on the clients’ individual needs. While therapy may end or shift to an as-needed basis, it can take up to two years or more for some clients to fully recover from infidelity.
How does therapy help the partner who was cheated on?
When a client discovers their partner’s infidelity, their trust in the relationship and in the life they had together may be shattered. They often experience mental health symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, grief, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). They don’t always want to stay in the relationship; they may feel ambivalent or may even want to leave. Therapy gives these clients a safe and healthy way to communicate all of their complicated emotions and concerns.
How does therapy help the partner who committed infidelity?
Infidelity often occurs when one or both partners’ emotional needs are not being met in the relationship. Therapy can help this client understand why they cheated and figure out how to address those unmet needs without resorting to infidelity in the future. This can lessen (but not entirely eliminate) the risk of repeated infidelity. Clients who cheat may also feel intense guilt about deceiving their partners, a sentiment that they can work through in therapy.
