I work with adults and couples who want more clarity, connection, and stability in their lives and relationships. Many come to therapy feeling stuck in repeating patterns whether that shows up as communication breakdowns, emotional distance, stress, self-doubt, or difficulty navigating life transitions. Some clients are experiencing personal or relationship distress, while others are looking to strengthen their understanding of themselves or relationships.
We work together to understand the deeper patterns that shape your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. My approach is grounded in attachment science and integrates Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), DBT skills, mindfulness, and insights from neuroscience and the mind–body connection. By slowing things down and exploring these patterns, clients gain insight.
Health and wellness are my passion. I know how exhausting and heavy life and relationships can feel at times. This is a collaborative process where feedback is welcomed and reaching your mental health goals and improving quality of life are the focus. Feel free to reach out to see if individual, couples, or intensive options may be good fit.
