I am a certified emotionally focused couples therapist, sex therapist and LGBTQIA2S+ affirmative therapist. I work with couples, individuals and folks in consensual non-monogamous relationships.
I take an emotion-focused, strengths-based approach to therapy. When working with couples, I help partners identify and disrupt negative communication patterns so that they can be more accessible, responsive and engaged with one another. With adults and teens, I focus on generating more of what works in your life (and less of what doesn't).
I believe therapy should be a safe space to share your innermost feelings and thoughts with a person who is on your side. I will be on your side, particularly on the days it's hard to be with yourself.

I use Emotionally Focused Therapy, a model that is widely considered the "gold standard" for relationship counseling. EFT acknowledges that we are all wired for connection. When our connections are threatened, we resort to coping strategies like criticizing or shutting down that trigger our partners. In EFT we disrupt these negative patterns and create a safe haven for emotional reconnection.
