Do you and your partner feel like roommates? Are you recovering from trauma, navigating a faith transition, or feeling stuck in your relationship? You don’t have to face it alone. I help individuals and couples process life’s most painful and complex moments — and move toward healing, clarity, and connection. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, spiritual confusion, or relational distress, our work will focus on what matters most to you. I have advanced training in EMDR and Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, I bring both clinical skill and lived experience to the therapy room.
I’ve personally walked through trauma, identity shifts, single parenting, and the deconstruction and rebuilding of a relationship. I understand how painful change can be — and how powerful healing is when it’s supported with compassion and expertise.
I am proudly affirming and deeply engaged in the LGBTQ+ community. As a professor at NIU, I also train future couple and family therapists, ensuring our field continues to grow with integrity. If you’re ready to feel more like yourself again, rebuild trust in your relationships, or find peace in your personal life story, I would be honored to support you.
