If you’re feeling stuck in painful patterns, overwhelmed by past experiences, or struggling in your relationship, therapy can help. I specialize in working with couples and individuals navigating complex trauma, relational distress, faith transitions, and high-conflict dynamics. My approach is warm, direct, and trauma-informed. Together, we’ll work toward change that feels grounded, lasting, and truly supportive.
My approach is active, relational, and trauma-informed. I offer 90-minute couples sessions and intensives, plus EMDR and somatic tools for individuals. We’ll work in real time to shift patterns, build safety, and create change that actually sticks.
You don’t have to do this alone — and you don’t have to figure it all out before reaching out. If something in you knows that change is possible, we can begin there. I offer a free 20-minute consultation so we can see if we’re a good fit.

I primarily use the Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy (PACT) with couples and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) with trauma. Both approaches are informed by brain science and are adjustable towards every client's unique situation and needs. I build custom treatment plans with every client in a collaborative way so that each person feels they have a say in treatment.
