I offer therapy online for couples and individuals online in California. Couples often come to me stuck in repeating conflicts that leave them feeling disconnected, stuck, and hurt. They may have tried to make things better, but somehow things keep getting worse. I help couples develop a new understanding of what drives their conflicts, rebuild trust, and deepen intimacy. Individuals often arrive feeling overwhelmed by relationship difficulties, grief, past trauma, or major life transitions. I help them make sense of their experience, release stuck emotion, and move forward.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and direct. I listen deeply, ask thoughtful questions, and bring both insight and concrete tools to our work. Rather than imposing a one-size-fits-all framework, I collaborate with clients to tailor therapy to their needs. The pace, intensity, and depth of our work are all within your control.
Whether you’re seeking support for yourself or your relationship, you don’t have to face these challenges alone. If you’re curious about what therapy might offer or want to see if we’re a good fit, I welcome you to reach out. I offer a complimentary 15-minute consultation to potential clients.

Rather than imposing a one-size-fits-all framework, I collaborate with clients to tailor therapy to their needs. With couples, I primarily draw from Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, but I have training in several other modalities as well. The pace, depth, and intensity of our work are determined in collaboration with each client.
