Do boundaries feel hard or awkward to create? Are you not feeling valued or seen in your relationships? Do you sense that life could feel better, but you’re unsure where to start? This is exactly where I can help. I support individuals through conscious uncoupling, relationship transitions, and moments of deep personal change. Whether you are deciding to stay, leave, or redefine a relationship, we focus on helping you understand your needs, trust your voice, and move forward in a way that feels aligned and supportive to you.

Together, we create space for your feelings, your truth, and the strength that allows you to choose freedom, self-respect, and meaningful connection. I want to know what is happening for you right now and who you are becoming. Each session is tailored to your life and experiences.

I specialize in healing from codependency, narcissistic abuse, and relationships impacted by addiction, both past and present. I know how difficult it can feel to be stuck, to know something needs to change but not know how to begin. You don’t have to figure it out alone. When you’re ready, reach out. I offer a complimentary 15-minute consult.

I work with individuals and couples that are in an uncomfortable loop of unhealthy and unhelpful codependency dynamics. Together we build new patterns of awareness and connection, supportive boundaries and heal dynamics of the past. All leading to a stronger sense of self-worth and communication with themselves and those they have interpersonal relationships with.

Building rapport through humanistic style and approach is best as we build trust, deeper emotional and childhood/historical traumas can be explored. I find it best to meet my clients where they are in their self development journey and nourish where they want to go, who they want to be and we find a way there. Building boundaries, finding clarity and humor find their way into most sessions.
