I work with individuals, couples, and families and treat a wide range of presenting issues, such as highly sensitive individuals, anxiety, personality disorders, and more.
Knowing we can be loved exactly as we are gives us the best opportunity to grow into the healthiest people. Relational psychotherapy and counseling help restore hope and connection, even during seasons of immense pain and suffering. Having a place where you can be heard and feel known is essential while working through heavy feelings, emotions, thoughts, and difficult past experiences. As therapy deepens, my clients gain helpful insight into the presenting symptoms and patterns of behavior that initially brought them to see me.

I believe healing begins by healing our relationship to ourselves and learning to see ourselves more clearly.
Welcome! Finding a therapist can be a vulnerable and challenging task, I’m glad you're here. I work with folks looking to create new patterns, behaviors, and grow deeper connections with themselves. Are you someone who overthinks, analyzes, or is constantly stuck in your head? Have you been told in the past that you are “too sensitive” or things are “not that big of a deal”? Perhaps you have felt misunderstood or invalidated by those around you, causing you to isolate or retreat to your thoughts. If you're struggling with a harsh inner critic and seeking to move towards more self compassion, we may be a good fit.

Is all of your time & energy spent caring for others, with none left over for your own self-care? Do you find your mind filled with negative self-talk? Are you constantly comparing yourself to others & finding yourself coming up short? Have you become burned out by working a job that pays a salary far lower than your skill set is worth? Are you pressured to count every calorie, try every new diet, & over-exercise to punish yourself for enjoying a meal? Are you stuck in a relationship that isn’t meeting your needs, or that you’re afraid to leave? Do you simultaneously feel guilty for working & like you're not working enough?.
Her Time therapists recognize that women experience a unique set of biological, environmental, economic, & social challenges that have a very real & significant impact on their mental health & well-being. Historically, terms like “crazy” have been used to describe, stigmatize, & diminish the experience of women. Her Time Therapy rewrites that narrative.

Whether you've experienced a single traumatic event, have a difficult family history, or have experienced deep hurt in relationships we can work together to explore, heal, and unburden you from carrying this pain forward.

My work primarily focuses on the needs specific to women (though not limited), transitional phases of life, relationship issues, young adults and teenagers.
Together we will explore the often painful and uncomfortable spaces within and work from an Inside-Out approach. In doing so, we find that the storms tend to be more universal, we see our common humanity, we develop more perspective, self-compassion and compassion and empathy for others. When we learn to be more of our authentic selves, we become more free.

Couples Counseling Therapists
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.
When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.
How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.
How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
