Are relationships a source of stress in your life? Whether it’s your partner, single status, family, friends, or co-workers, your interactions take up mental space and cause anxiety. On the outside, you're fine. On the inside, you’re comparing and worrying what other people think and feel, trying to keep them happy, or playing defense. You just want to feel grounded, accepted, and comfortable in your own skin and for people to know and value you for who you are. I believe you get to live your life in close connection with others, while confidently pursuing your own goals and dreams.
I focus on issues with self-esteem, anxiety, interpersonal conflict and communication, dating, perfectionism, break-ups, and stress. Common goals are reducing anxiety, finding a suitable partner, building connection, stronger communication, healthy boundaries, finding purpose/career, managing life transitions, and increasing coping skills and confidence.
I completed a 4-year post-graduate certification in Marriage and Family Therapy, and am constantly improving my skills. My clients don't fill empty spots! This is my passion and you are so important to me; I remember details and strategize between sessions ensuring you receive the best care in return for your commitment to therapy.
