Trying to ‘do it all’ can be exhausting. And, even while feeling successful, it’s easy to get worn down and feel like we aren’t living as fully as we’d like. Life is hard and relationships are complicated. You deserve the opportunity to find happiness and fulfillment. Therapy creates an opportunity for you to take time for yourself, to think through what you want to be different, and to fix what’s not working. For years, my team and I have worked successfully with individuals, couples, and families to help them increase satisfaction and reconnect in ways that they’ve been missing. We do Good Human Work - because it's in our name.
Our approach to counseling begins with you. We tailor our sessions to focus on your needs and to reach your goals. I specialize in working with couples, teaching self-compassion and mindfulness, and parenting struggles. I have specialized training in a variety of modalities and utilize those in an integrative approach to therapy.
Together, we'll figure out how to help you create lasting change as quickly as possible. See more detailed information about our team on my website, or reach out for a free, 15-min brief consultation to see if we're a good fit for therapy. We're happy to answer any questions you have.

I look at how identity, relationships, and systems affect you and work primarily with clients who are motivated to make change. Our sessions help you achieve your goals efficiently and sustainably. We typically meet for a few sessions to gain momentum and facilitate change, then space out meeting as improvements occur and you're empowered to continue the work in between sessions on your own.

For couples I integrate EFT, Imago, and Gottman research to help you discern, set goals, and shift dynamics. With individuals, I use a combination of methods and tools from IFS, self-compassion, mindfulness, narrative, DBT, and others to address primary concerns, reduce symptoms and struggles, and help you dive deeper into creating meaningful changes.
