I specialize in working with adults - as individuals and as couples, particularly those who may be dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, or life transitions. Clients dealing with grief, relationships, identity issues, body image challenges, or career uncertainty will also find a safe space with me to explore, heal, and grow. If you are a client seeking to better understand yourself or to better understand your partner, we can explore and learn together.
I am trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), centered on the belief that all of us are wired to seek attachment and belonging in our lives. When working with couples and relationship challenges, I come from an EFT or attachment-based lens, but I also have some training in Gottman methodology and tools that can enhance our work together.
In my office, you will be greeted by custom wall art that states four key principles that I want every client to feel during our sessions - and learn to carry with them out into their lives: You are allowed to take up space. You deserve to feel joy. You are worthy of love. You are enough.

For clients who are struggling with the impacts of trauma, I offer EMDR therapy, which is an evidence-based treatment utilizing bi-lateral stimulation (eye movement, tapping side to side, or sound) to reprocess traumatic memories and reduce the intensity of emotion connected to those memories.
