Most people come to therapy when life feels heavier, relationships feel strained, or a sense of disconnection—from themselves or from others—begins to take hold. These experiences can show up as stress, emotional overwhelm, finding yourself repeating familiar patterns, or simply knowing something needs attention. I offer a warm, collaborative space grounded in safety, understanding, and genuine human connection. Together, we build present-moment awareness and explore patterns that may be contributing to distress, creating space for clarity, emotional resilience, and meaningful change.
Working with couples is a central focus of my practice. I take a relational, collaborative approach that helps partners slow down and cultivate understanding of the reactive dynamics shaping their relationship—especially attachment needs and emotional responses that can pull couples into painful cycles or emotional distance.
Whether working with individuals or couples, my approach integrates attachment-based therapy with mindfulness and somatic awareness, grounded in emotional safety. By slowing things down and deepening awareness, clients can make sense of inner and relational dynamics, creating space for connection, resilience, and meaningful change.
