You’re trying to hold it all together — but inside, you’re overwhelmed. Maybe you and your partner keep having the same argument, or you're stuck in your own head with anxiety, sadness, or self-doubt. You shut down, lash out, or feel like you're losing yourself. Whether you're navigating young adulthood, relationship stress, or past trauma, you're not alone — and it doesn't have to stay this way.

Are you going through a stressful time or life transition that feels tied to something deeper? I work with adolescents and adults who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or are struggling with trauma, addiction, anxiety, or depression.

I use Internal Family Systems (IFS) and EMDR in a trauma-informed, attachment-focused way to help you process and heal those deeper roots—while building self-understanding, compassion, and lasting change.

My approach is rooted in Family Systems Theory, integrating CBT, Narrative, and Schema Therapy as needed.
Human connection is essential. Yet it’s the people we love the most whom we assume cause us the deepest hurt. If only they would listen, understand, and meet our needs. Love should be easy—shouldn’t it? What if I told you that these very paradigms of thinking—though deeply human—can actually stand in the way of the connection we truly desire? My focus is on helping couples (married and unmarried), families, and individuals who find themselves in dysfunctional or disconnected relationship systems. Through a family systems lens, we’ll explore how your current relationship patterns are shaped by the dynamics of your family-of-origin.

How does schema therapy work?
Schema therapy is based on the idea that maladaptive thought patterns formed in childhood—that other people can never be relied on, for example—can interfere with healthy functioning in adulthood. Accordingly, schema therapy works by directly targeting such unhealthy schemas, identifying their consequences, and replacing them with more adaptive ways of thinking. To this end, schema therapists aim to “reparent” the client by offering what they didn’t get in childhood—validation, for instance, or compassion—to reorient their worldview.
Is schema therapy evidence-based?
Schema therapy is still considered relatively new, and research on its efficacy is still in progress. However, some studies have concluded that it can be effective at treating certain mental health conditions, most notably personality disorders such as borderline personality disorder. Evidence for its efficacy in treating conditions like depression, anxiety, PTSD, and OCD is promising but less conclusive, and experts warn that much of the existing research is of low quality.
Is schema therapy a type of CBT?
Schema therapy is based on many principles of CBT, most notably the process of recognizing and challenging maladaptive thought patterns. But because schema therapy also draws from other approaches,including psychoanalysis and Gestalt therapy, it is not considered a form of CBT. It also typically delves deeper into the client’s childhood than does CBT.
How does schema therapy work?
Schema therapy does not call for a set number of sessions and is instead open-ended, with the treatment timeline depending on the client’s primary concern(s), progress, and preferences. Treatment that lasts between six months and two years is common, though many clients will start to see progress much earlier than that.
