Relationships evoke our deepest longings and fears, and touch on wounds that may have been long hidden, wounds which we’ve often lived a lifetime without recognizing. The pain of disconnection we feel in relationships, the heated arguments and periods of distance or alienation, can leave us lost and confused, stuck in emotional knots, with our desire for closeness vying against our protective reactions. Cycles of conflict may escalate, and with them, the pain. All the while, deep down, we quietly long to share ourselves more honestly and fully with those whom we are closest to.

Staying connected to your partner can be tough - even when there’s a lot of love in your relationship. In fact, being in love can make it that much more painful when you feel far away from or unheard by “your person.” I use Emotionally Focused Therapy to help couples who love one another deeply, yet feel like they are missing each other. My approach is nurturing, compassionate, intuitive, and grounded in evidence-based practice. I love helping parents of young children, pregnant and postpartum couples navigate the challenges that come with life with kids.

I am a Certified Emotionally Focused Therapist and Supervisor and I provide psychotherapy to couples, families, and individuals. I specialize in working with couples, helping them to connect in a more meaningful way. I am consulted to help people with relationships, grief and loss, transitions, divorce, women's issues, and other life challenges.

It is difficult to take that first step and ask for help, to find a connection in a trusted therapist. I offer a genuine and collaborative counseling environment for individuals, couples and families. If life's issues from everyday challenges to life changing events have become overwhelming, I want you to know that you are not alone. Or, if your relationship has lost that emotional connection, there may be a path toward re-discovery and new discovery. Our work can help you to understand the sources of your distress in ways that will allow you to think more clearly, feel more deeply, and manage your relationship more effectively.

Do you sometimes feel alone in the world? Do you sometimes wonder "is this all there is?" Do you often wonder if everyone else has some sort of secret knowledge, that if only you had, would make your life better? Many of us feel these things at one time or another in our lives and sometimes we get "stuck" and feel unable to move forward. I will walk with you and help you understand where these issues come from and what you can do to feel better.

I promote improvement in my client's quality of life related to moods, relationships & sense of purpose. I approach clients where they are in their lives, relationships & moods in a manner that is accepting and encouraging. I believe people are their own best resource for understanding their present state, how they have arrived there, & having resilience to heal & move toward their goals. When clients are very stuck in negative moods, behaviors & relational patterns, I help them engage these through mindfulness, emotionally-focused & trauma healing therapies, which are based on understanding natural processes of healing & growth.

For as long as I can remember, I have wanted to help others. Active listening, being empathetic, and showing compassion for others during tough times has always come naturally to me. I strive to bring these natural strengths, as well as the tools I have learned throughout my time as a student, to give the best possible care to each of my clients/families/couples. I believe that a client should be able to leave each therapy session with a greater understanding and self-awareness of how they can navigate through their lives.

Hello there! I am a Marriage and Family therapist also gaining Sex Therapy certification through the Sexual Health Alliance. I knew from an early age that becoming a sex therapist was part of my life mission. My love for human sexuality blossomed when obtaining my Somatic Counseling degree where I studied how the human body is an integral component of sex, sexual trauma, and behavior. I absolutely love working with partners that have been together for long periods of time and haven't had much success with therapy. The goal is not to go back to the way things used to be, the goal is for things to be stronger than than have ever been.

I’m so glad you’re here. You are most likely looking for support in your partnership, and I trust I can offer that. I am a therapist and coach who specializes in relationship and sex/intimacy struggles. I love working with couples to help them re-access connection and uncover the true roots of their struggles. Often times the challenges are both deeper than we think, and also more resolvable than we think.

At times we can get lost in figuring out how to navigate the difficulties in our lives, leading to points of “stuckness” which can feel scary, painful, isolating, and defeating. If your curiosity has brought you here, I gently invite you to lean into that as this is the first step into unlocking what’s possible. I’m passionate about working with motivated individuals and couples who struggle with perfectionism, shame, depression, anxiety, past traumas, low confidence, life transitions, relationship and family conflict, infidelity, divorce, or separation.
