Here you are, yet again, seeking your partner's understanding but hitting a wall instead. You instantly sense how this interaction will go. Desperate to be heard, you try some other way, some other words...to no avail. Anxiety and frustration rise and suddenly you're further apart than when you started. After the Nth round of this, you wonder if the closeness you once felt is out of reach for good.
But it's not. I help couples finally exit destructive cycles using Emotionally Focused Therapy. That means we'll work with feeling and your present experience to reduce reactivity, dissolve stuckness, and move toward connection and care.
I also support individuals struggling in relationships, overwhelmed by emotions, or stuck in familiar, unhelpful patterns. Being human can be heavy, confusing, and at times breathtakingly painful, but it's not supposed to be done alone. You and I will move at a pace that feels safe for your nervous system and in a way that collaborates with your wiring.
Learning to deeply befriend my own emotional world changed me, and I'm passionate about helping others find the same growth.
You've already made a courageous move toward change. If you’re looking for depth and a therapist who shows up as a real, engaged person in the room, let's connect.
