I work with clients who want to de-escalate conflict, repair more effectively, and build deeper, more intimate relationships. We begin with a thorough assessment using interviews and objective measures to identify strengths and challenges. Treatment often includes readings, structured exercises, and behavioral practice. My clients gain insight into emotions and unhelpful thought patterns.

I often use TEAM Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Gottman Method Couples Therapy in my practice. In our first session, we'll explore what brings you to therapy, use assessments to clarify concerns, and create a treatment plan. CBT helps us understand how thoughts shape emotions and experiences, while the Gottman Method focuses on de-escalating conflict, improving communication, and repair.
