You don’t have to keep having the same fight. Whether you’re stuck in a loop of miscommunication with your partner or quietly struggling with anxiety, depression, people pleasing, substance use, or trauma; real and permanent change is possible. I work with couples who feel disconnected and individuals who feel overwhelmed—and together we create space for new ways of relating, both to yourself and the people you love.
As a seasoned therapist with deep roots in attachment-based work, I help couples move from frustration to understanding, from reactivity to repair. My approach is collaborative and grounded in empathy. You’ll feel supported. In individual therapy, I help clients untangle old patterns, calm anxious minds, and find a strong sense of clarity and ease.
Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about reconnecting with who you are and what you need to thrive. If you’re ready to shift the dynamics in your relationship or your own internal world, I’d love to help you get there. Let’s talk.
