Immediate Openings for Individuals, Couples, & Families in Rhode Island & Massachusetts! Many of the individuals, couples, and families I work with are busy professionals who excel in their careers but feel disconnected in their relationships. The demands of work, parenting, and daily life can lead to stress, miscommunication, and a loss of intimacy. You may find yourselves stuck in the same arguments, struggling to feel heard, or wondering where the closeness you once had has gone.

As a Couple & Family Therapist who teaches and supervises new couple and family therapists, I bring a deep understanding of relationship dynamics and evidence-based strategies to help you reconnect. Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method, we’ll focus on improving communication, rebuilding trust, and strengthening emotional connection.

I also have experience working with eating disorders and disordered eating, incorporating Intuitive Eating and Health At Every Size approaches to help clients build healthier relationships with food, develop a positive body image, and foster self-acceptance. If this resonates with you, contact me today for a complimentary 15-minute consultation.
