Trained as a Marriage and Family Therapist, my hope is that the therapy experience is different from anything an individual, couple or family has ever tried before.
It seems to me that at the core of what we want is to know we are loved and deeply known. We want connection and peace with ourselves, family members, partners, and friends. I walk alongside clients experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, self esteem issues, identity, parenting issues, anger, and life transitions. I enjoy working with adolescents, young adults and couples. I also have experience working with blended families, infidelity, separation, and sexual concerns. I am only available to meet clients online.

I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and specialize in working with LGBTQIA+, intimate relationships, and social oppression.
It is okay to feel chaotic or stuck in oneself, relationships, or family systems. Therapy with me is collaborative; nurturing a space that feels brave, nonjudgmental, and warm for each of you. My clinical belief is that in therapy, we may go through emotional challenges, which may come with pain and sorrow, alongside realization and compassion. To experience the healing we seek, we want to make rooms for emotions, thoughts, and experiences that are uncomfortable and hurtful. I know it takes a lot of courage to do so, and I would love to go on this journey with you.

Waitlist for new clients
As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I take a relational approach to treatment.
The path to healing is a collaborative effort that the client and therapist engage in together. I believe that my clients are capable, intelligent human beings who actually know quite a bit about what they need to feel whole and happy. I have a special interest in working with couples, relational issues, and parenting issues. I am an "integrative" therapist. Instead of ascribing to one school of therapy, I incorporate different methods of treatment based on each client's individual need

In family/ marital, we seek to understand each family member and work to improve communication, trust, balance and harmony.
The therapists in our practice joined together because of our shared belief that our clients, who have reached out for help in managing and overcoming the challenges their lives, each have a unique set of strengths that often need to be better understood and developed. In our own styles, we each use the therapeutic relationship to understand what is interfering with an individual's sense of fulfillment in life. We approach therapy from the perspective that, at our core, our clients are health seeking but may be repeating old patterns that are not serving them well.
