Therapy with me is a collaborative process of making sense of what feels overwhelming and finding a clearer way forward. I bring over 20 years of experience supporting adults, teens, and families through anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma, family conflict, and life transitions.
My approach is deeply empathic, steady, and tailored to each person. I draw from CBT, DBT, attachment theory, and family systems theory, combining what fits your needs rather than relying on a single framework.
Many clients come in feeling stuck in patterns that show up most strongly in family, couple, or parent-child relationships. I have a strong focus on helping shift them in ways that create more connection and understanding.
I also specialize in working with families in conflict. My goal is to help each side understand the other, including the things that may not be easily spoken.
My hope is to offer a steady, compassionate space where you feel seen, supported, and able to make meaningful change.
