Anxious in love? Do you overthink, constantly wonder, "what if?" and worry that the next disagreement will end it all? Does this leave you feeling like you're "too much"? I’d be honored to help you—or you and your partner—reconnect with yourselves and each other, building secure love, confidence, and self-compassion. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), one of the most researched approaches for couples therapy with 30+ years of empirical support. I may be biased but I think it's the greatest model for couples work. Red Therapy Group is an EFT practice that prioritizes continued learning and EFT-specific supervision.
EFT consistently shows improvements in boosting relationship satisfaction, attachment security, and emotional connection. In session with me, I help you make sense of painful patterns with non-judgement, track and slow your cycle with empathy, and guide you to feel, learn from, and share your emotions, creating lasting change.
If you're ready for life to feel a little easier and more connected, I encourage you to reach out. Our care coordinator, Laura, will kindly help you get set up. I look forward to meeting you and I'm so ready and happy to help!

I work with clients who are struggling with anxiety and relationship issues. Our first few sessions will be intake and assessment where I'm getting to know you, your presenting concerns, and your story. From there, we will get to work with experiential talk therapy. With a commitment to growth and regular attendance, my clients tend to feel improvements within the first month.
